Hi everybody,
Since my servers burnt in OVH datacenter I had to turn my backup servers into production servers. One is getting overhelmed and is almost stuck with ram usage going straight to 93% after reboot while there is only 3 VM running on it.
I tried to use atop to understand what's going on and it seems very dirty process running on it but I am not sure how to interpret it and how to clean this up.
Anyone can help ?

Run arc_summary to get infos abount your ARC. By default the ARC should use 16GB (50%) of your RAM if your sda and sdb are mirrored using ZFS.
 
Thanks for your reply,
here is the output:

Code: 
root@proxmox-3:~# arc_summary -p 1

Thanks Ramalama but not sure I got what you meant with that.
I read some topic relaed to slab issue with proxmox but I guess it is above my competence.
