Apparently that doesn't exist on 6-STABLE, although its generating the error?

# sysctl kern.maxswzone
sysctl: unknown oid 'kern.maxswzone'

A tunable doesn't need to exist in the sysctl domain...  simply add it
to /boot/loader.conf as documented in conf/NOTES or defaults/loader.conf...

I think the default size is this.

$ [EMAIL PROTECTED] [/usr/src/sys]
grep --mmap -r VM_SWZONE .
./amd64/include/param.h:#ifndef VM_SWZONE_SIZE_MAX
./amd64/include/param.h:#define VM_SWZONE_SIZE_MAX      (32 * 1024 * 1024)
./boot/common/loader.8:.Dv VM_SWZONE_SIZE_MAX .
./conf/options:VM_SWZONE_SIZE_MAX       opt_param.h
./i386/include/param.h:#ifndef VM_SWZONE_SIZE_MAX
./i386/include/param.h:#define VM_SWZONE_SIZE_MAX       (32 * 1024 * 1024)
./kern/subr_param.c:#ifdef VM_SWZONE_SIZE_MAX
./kern/subr_param.c:    maxswzone = VM_SWZONE_SIZE_MAX;
