In the same time I have a couple of hosts successfully running zfs on 
768 Megs and on 1 Gig of RAM. Both i386.
And they aren't affected by the periodic weekly for some reason. And 
they are used only as fileservers.

So when I see all these advices to add a gazillion gigabytes of RAM to 
use zfs - I don't see the connection.
