with some help from chuq@ we've narrowed this down to the
kmem_arena being under 10% empty:
db call uvm_km_va_starved_p
1
which keeps the main loop from sleeping. but why this is full and
not being fixed by the page daemon isn't a mystery.

That's interessting what size does the arena have on the system with
512mb? Probably limited by NKMEMPAGES_MAX_DEFAULT, so it might need to
be larger on those.
i noticed macppc already defines this to 256MB. trying that now.

Hi,
Hopefully the correct list for this question...
I'm looking for some guidance in deciding criteria that
affect your (i.e., *my*) decision as to which of (for
example):
lpt* at acpi?
lpt* at isa?
lpt* at pnpbios?
to use in a particular (5.1.2/i386, in this case) kernel
config
