The free memory seems to have stabilized at about 26 gigs.  I assume
that ZFS allocates memory from this free space.

swap reports on used, reserved, and available swap space for virtual memory; it doesn't report on free physical memory. ZFS operates largely below the virtual memory system and manages physical memory.

Two ways to look at free physical memory are with the "vmstat" command's "free" column, and with "top"; "top" also displays ZFS ARC statistics.
