I think this behavior is limited to the amd64 architecture, or at
least more prone to occur. I have a number of identical servers, and
only one of them runs in amd64 mode. This server displays these
errors every now and then, while the others don't. While the server
continues to function properly, its still annoying seeing these.
Perhaps there is a auto tuning problem on amd64?
I have six identical boxes all built at the same time. This is the
only one reporting this error. All run identical copies of freebsd.
I also have at least 2 other boxes with SATA drives running amd64 and
none shows the error.
It is obviously related to workload.
Perhaps its memory related, my other servers are much more loaded,
however the one exhibiting this problem has less ram and usually uses
about 300MB of swap. The messages are not very frequent, perhaps once /
2 months.
