Just set it to 90??

(And ensure you set the right thing i.e. kern.bufcachepercent rightly spelled.)

Playing little bit with

sysctl bufcacheparcent

and  BUFCACHEPERCENT in

/sys/conf/param.c

I noticed that it is at least somewhat faster using value 10 instead of
default value 20. Has anybody noticed anything strange with rm and du -h
-s on the directories with lots of small files. Any suggestions how to
speed things up?
