Our validation group has a default postinstall process, every installed system gets those changes, and these mbuf pool sizes are in that set of changes. While I'm not opposed to system default settings changing its usually necessary to have local sys changes anyway, after all you don't get 9K jumbos without manually specifying them as well :)
