I just experienced a nasty situation: I ran out of mbuf clusters (6656) and ppp was one of the processes stuck in objcache_get.
even after some clusters drained (from netstat -m output), the objcache depot didn't get free entries back and ppp stayed stuck. and of course because of this no mbuf clusters were freed (ppp would have to transmit them, i guess). I was doing some serious down/uploading at the moment. this should not happen, or at least more gracefully. cheers simon -- Serve - BSD +++ RENT this banner advert +++ ASCII Ribbon /"\ Work - Mac +++ space for low €€€ NOW!1 +++ Campaign \ / Party Enjoy Relax | http://dragonflybsd.org Against HTML \ Dude 2c 2 the max ! http://golden-apple.biz Mail + News / \
