Thanks for your example. I have finally had time to study it

The example works fine for creating the entry in the dynamic table

reduces performance, but chances are you won't even notice it unless
you're running the server under a heavy load. You said your network

FreeBSD will defragment itself without any action from the user.
However, defragmentation requires some blank space,

The make build/install stuff seems a bit more delicate. I'm happy that I
have figured out how to automate this, but not _whether_ I should do so.
