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

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

stable, the P6 doesn't. If I reduce MAXUSERS to 128 then these

Hi.
I saw that my 4-CURRENT box from 8 February dropped to ddb

same problem is occuring. These problems started occuring
after Matt Dillon's changes to the VM system.
