First, thanks for the pointer to a great resource on various tunables, and a fantastic guide to tweaking things related to mbufs. Tim had asked how FreeBSD comes up with this value initially, and there isn't any insight into the initial value on that page, unless I missed something. So, where that is synthesized from remains a mystery, despite having good information on how to tune it for practical use. Thanks, Gerald
