I haven't, it's at the default of 100000. How would I be able to tell if that limit is being reached? Right now: $ sysctl kern.maxvnodes vfs.numvnodes vfs.freevnodes kern.maxvnodes: 100000 vfs.numvnodes: 87287 vfs.freevnodes: 24993 and on the sister host: $ sysctl kern.maxvnodes vfs.numvnodes vfs.freevnodes kern.maxvnodes: 100000 vfs.numvnodes: 87681 vfs.freevnodes: 7600 Is there a rule of thumb what maxvnodes should be tuned to?
