Hi there.
Some time ago, I read that if someone wants better monitoring, then they need to set up specialized monitoring software and not rely on PVE graphs. Nevertheless, I do believe that ZFS users without monitoring software (like me) could benefit from showing ARC size in a memory usage graph (at node summary). I do think so, because without that, the graph is not very useful and does not show VMs' actual memory usage. By default, ARC can consume up to 50% of RAM. Thus, it's typical that ARC can eat more RAM than the VMs themselves (on my homelab 32GB-node ARC went to 15.9 GB, and VMs are only 7.2 GB).
So, my question is, is there any way to add the ARC size to the memory graph?
