The ARC's idea of how much free memory there is, which includes evictable memory in the page cache.
Since the ARC tries to keep \fBavail\fR above zero, \fBavail\fR is usually more instructive to observe than \fBfree\fR.

\fBavail \fR
.ad
.RS 14n
The ARC's idea of how much free memory is available to it, which is a bit less than \fBfree\fR.
May temporarily be negative, in which case the ARC will reduce the target size \fBc\fR.

.SH AUTHORS
.LP
arcstat was originally written in Perl by Neelakanth Nadgir and supported only ZFS ARC statistics.
Mike Harsch updated it to support L2ARC statistics.
John Hixson ported it to Python for FreeNAS over some beer, after which many individuals from the OpenZFS community continued to maintain and improve it.
