Try reducing maxusers to 128. If you have mbuf problems, override NMBCLUSTERS ( making it 4096 or 8192 should be sufficient ). Sometimes network mbuf problems on heavily loaded machines are due to too-large default buffer sizes - if net.inet.tcp.sendspace or recvspace is greater then 16384, try reducing it to 16384.
If your machine is not using that > 2GB of swap, cap the swap at 1.9GB. -Matt Matthew Dillon <dil...@backplane.com> :I've had it at MAXUSERS=256 on both the P5 and the P6. The P5 stays :stable, the P6 doesn't. If I reduce MAXUSERS to 128 then these :heavily loaded boxen will fall over due to out of MBUFs errors, or :so I believe. : :I'd love to find some real kernel-tuning documentation out there, :one of my panics is a "pipeinit: cannot allocate pipe -- out of kvm" :and I can't pull a crashdump due to a DSCHECK error because my :SWAP is > 2GB. : : :-Troy Cobb : Circle Net, Inc. : http://www.circle.net : : :To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org :with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message : To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
