Well, backing out now is not really an option... But given my past history with NFS, and knowledge of this site I think I have a fair idea where the leak is... I think it is in the nfsv3 "commit" handler. Why do I think this? Simple, this problem started when a user started running a large jo

I'd say that there is a definite leak somewhere. The question is where. I'll run some buildworld tests w/ the latest current to see if I can cause mbufs to leak. I suspect that the problem may be related to a specific situation, though, such as a particular type of FS op failure.
