Vermaden, so the following from
http://wiki.freebsd.org/ZFSTuningGuide#amd64 nowadays even seems to apply to amd64 systems with only 1 GB of memory .....

amd64
FreeBSD 7.2+ has improved kernel memory allocation strategy and no tuning may be necessary on systems with more than 2 GB of RAM.

Since several years I have an am64 system with 1 GB of RAM, it is my main desktop system running OpenBSD adm64. Never knew I could have used ZFS on it
The recently acquired 2GB system has a Pentium IV cpu, so strictly i386 only :

It was previously owned by my wife. My daughter assembled a new quad-core for her mam, so in one way you could call me a lucky, cheap bastard
@graudeejs
Thanks for the tweaks I will try them and report back.
