I've adjusted MAXUSERS to 128 on my heavily loaded PIIs and the crashes
have not re-occurred for 24 hours now. (Had to adjust NMBCLUSTERS up,
though)
The panics were happening every 5-8 hours like clockwork prior to this.
I believe that these crashes are caused by heavy network traffic, not

If you are runn
Try reducing maxusers to 128. If you have mbuf problems, override
NMBCLUSTERS ( making it 4096 or 8192 should be sufficient ). Sometimes
network mbuf problems on heavily loaded machines are due to too-large
default buffer sizes - if net.inet.tcp.sendspace or recvspace is greater

Try reducing maxusers to 128. Another person reported similar behavior
to me and after a bunch of work he tried going back to a basic
distribution -- and everything started working again.
It turned out that a maxusers value of 256 and 512 were causing his mac

Hi.
I saw that my 4-CURRENT box from 8 February dropped to ddb
after my last make world. I rebuilt world today, and the
same problem is occuring. These problems started occuring
after Matt Dillon's changes to the VM system.
What is worrying/troubling is that in single user mode,
