I could be wrong but isn't this the normal memory management in Solaris an its derivatives? Even if it's not arc and it was used and now marked as inactive . The kernel keep its in a different "accounting bucket" , but it's still usable . What I suspect the op is ticked off with is actually arc back pressure and l1 arc eviction which can be horridly slow .
