Sort of..but it also lists options that are only legal within specific port makefiles (like USE_*). Post your make.conf and I'll probably be able to tell you what's wrong. Kris OK, my problem doesn't seem to be exactly the same. My machine hangs, and when I check it the console screen is filled with the message, "swap-pager: indefinite wait buffer: bufobj: 0, blkno: 26650, size: 4096" and at that point the only thing I can do is a hard reboot -- it's not reacting to input at all.

Has anybody else seen this? Yes. I'm running FreeBSD 6.0 on a PII 300MHz with 64MB RAM and a 40GB hard drive. It works great until I run portupgrade on mysql-server. Then it runs out of swap space and I get console error messages and have to reboot. I haven't dug into it yet, but several months ago I redirected the swap file to a different location to increase the size. I'll have to do some research to find out exactly what I did and how much space I gave it and how to increase it. I haven't had time yet to do it. Don't know why building mysql-* (and possibly some others) takes so much swap space. I first encountered it running portmanager -u and didn't realize for a couple of days (and four or five freeze-ups) what was happening. This really has become more dramatic: Usually - when I run a portupgrade - about half of my RAM is used and I can still work on my Gnome desktop without any swapping or serious performance losses. Now every port produces this Max recursion message and applications become unusable.
