I was wondering if omnios has also changed the way it uses memory when going from r151018 - > r151022?
I've been running r151018 under esxi v6u2 (all in one with passtrough VM with 6GB RAM for years with good performance)
Memory usage would always be going up and down depending on what the system was doing (from 500M to 4-5GB usage).
I've upgraded from r151018 - > r151020-> r151022 and also reinstalled my server from ESXi v6 to 6.5 u1
Now esxi complains that my vm is using the 6 GB constantly..:
These are the numbers I see from within omnios:
echo ::memstat | mdb -k
