I bumped kern.ipc.nmbclusters by a factor of 100 (from 2036224 to 203622400). 
As Hiren said, kern.ipc.nmbufs auto-adjusted (from 13031835 to 205111860).

However, I still see "requests for mbufs denied" immediately after reboot.

root@laurel:~ # netstat -m

0/0/0 requests for jumbo clusters denied (4k/9k/16k)
0 requests for sfbufs denied
0 requests for sfbufs delayed
0 requests for I/O initiated by sendfile

I just noticed that the total "mbufs in use" didn't seem to have increase when 
I did the 100x scaling of kern.ipc.nmbclusters (and kern.ipc.nmbufs 
auto-adjusted). Neither did "bytes allocated to network". Is that expected?
