Folks,

I have a Mac client that's running XFree86 (4.2.0) -query + 
Mozilla and losing lots of size-2048 buffers. The rate loss 
is approximately 1000 buffers/hour. I'm seeing this loss of 
memory after I boot with an initrd, get an IP address with 
dhclient and do a pivot_root onto the read-only NFS file 
system.

I can also boot the the client to a bash prompt on the local 
hard drive and then run XFree86 -query + Mozilla as before. 
I went so far as to mung rc.sysinit and leave the local 
filesystem mounted RO and mount -t shm to /var and /tmp.
Under these conditions, both with and without the local 
filesystem mounted RO, the size-2048 buffer utilization is 
nominal.

Anyone ever seen or heard of this before? Any thoughts on 
how to isolate this to a root cause?

Thanks,
Skip
