Probably you shoul look to:
netstat -m
4/1421/1425 mbufs in use (current/cache/total)
0/614/614/25600 mbuf clusters in use (current/cache/total/max)
netstat -Lan
give you a link to good article. It`s in russian, but you can see it for
commands
and sysctl variables which may help you.
Hi,
Have you read http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/ru_RU.KOI8-R/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
?
I can't read russian, but you need chapter 8 in the handbook.
