There really isn't a 'buffer cache' in FreeBSD. About 5 years ago FreeBSD
was changed so that buffers weren't used to cache filesystem data - instead
they are used as a mechanism to map cached pages from the VM system into
the kernel address space. All file caching now occurs in the VM system and
is completely dynamic in size, and varies with other activity in the system.
