Yes. It worked fine, but much smaller and less busy than what you're probably planning for. Originally, Ubuntu 16 &
olderZFS, PG data was on mirrorz SSD, with other SSD partitions for L2ARC & ZIL. Later, at a major update, I did some
benchmarking,and got rid of the SSD dedicated to ZFS. Then the SSD became entirely ZIL & L2ARC, and PG shared L2ARC
withother data.
So, to be clear, in this case the reason for having PG use L2ARC with spinning rust behind it was that the PG did not
needdedicated SSD for performance...
