of course not. I am not sure I read his vmstat screenshot right, but it
seemed to me that the box was using a lot of disk, but had lots of
free memory - i.e., it was probably just reading the data and the
disks maxed out?  Miguel, what does gstat show ? (it'll show the % busy
of each device in GEOM , which also includes non-RAID devices, so it's
quite useful)

ready for prod, trying to get back onto it soon.
