I forgot to mention that I run rc5des on my 3.4-STABLE machine here, and I
rarely see the temperature higher than 32C (~90F).

FYI: On hub.freebsd.org (the freebsd mailing list server), if we activate
softupdates on the disk containing the postfix spool, the machine reboots
(silently if I recall correctly) within 5 minutes of postfix starting up.
This is a much smaller system of course, with smaller memory and filesyste

Can you please include:

ps -axl
vmstat -i
sysctl kern
sysctl vm
And we can see if that gives some clues as to what the cpus are doing. It's

A couple weeks ago I got a CD-RW drive, and decided to try it out under
all the different OS's I use. In FreeBSD, the only way (it seems) to use
it, is grab a bunch of stuff you want to backup/record and use mkisofs and
cdrecord to dump it onto a CD. Everything I read seemed to indicate that

What is your login shell? Read its manual page.

Yes, postmark operates on the same file set. I used the following
postmark settings:
set number 3
set transactions 400
set size 1500 20
which uses a set of 30,000 files, and does a 4,000,000 transactions them
(random mix of various operations), and size between 1,500 and 200,000

Well, in general I would not mess with max_softdeps - softupdates gets
very inefficient if it hits its limits. I think you may have found a
flaw in the code, though. Softupdates reschedules its vnode sync whenever
it does something to the vnode. Postmark must be operating on the
