The BGP box I have (OpenBSD 3.9 -stable / amd64 / bsd.mp) is a "serverworks" based box with 2GB of ram per cpu, Intel PRO/1000MT dual and quard server nic's, U320 SCSI etc., etc. -> i.e. this is not about exhaustion due to inferior or inadequate hardware.

which serverworks? I'm not entirely happy with my ht1000 boards. and,
any particular reason you chose to run amd64 on them rather than i386?
*ServerWorks BCM5785 (Tyan Thunder / Opteron200)
respectively
*Intel 7500 chipsets (SuperMicro / Xeon)

Using "serverworks" kinda ensures a steady/fast platform with excellent bus IO.

*No it's the other way around - I prefer i386 on network critical installations like my BGP routers. The current amd64 box was what I had at the moment when I made a switch two weeks ago.

thanks for the update.

Anytime.
