My amd64 testbox running this has only 6G, so we can cry over red wine together.. 8-( the 1TB boxes at work have too many cores for obsd to run on them so I can't really make dmesg pr0n on them. The box randomizes bufmemcachepercent via cron every minute and has survived the night doing cvsyncs, cvs-up and racing over the ports tree back and forth. Since I don't have other pressure on it yet, my systat -> dmapages is almost equal to total pages: (doing html mail here to get proportional font, sorry for that) 1 users Load 2.05 1.47 0.84 Wed Mar 6 09:23:22 2013 DEVICE READ WRITE RTPS WTPS SEC STATS sd0 589824 0 36 0 0.0 311384 total pages cd0 0 0 0 0 0.0 311356 dma pages Totals 589824 0 36 0 0.0 36 dirty pages 9 delwri bufs 0 busymap bufs 6553 avail kvaslots 6553 kvaslots 0 pending writes 0 pending reads 2304 cache hits -- May the most significant bit of your life be positive.
