An mbuf is a fixed length structure which contains network data.
An mbuf cluster is ass

I've wondered precisely this; perhaps one specifically relates to the
network? The farthest I got was netstat(1), which points to a nonexistant
mbuf(9).

Hi,
I'm working with a box that is apparently running out of mbufs:
looutput: mbuf allocation failed
looutput: mbuf allocation failed
All mbuf clusters exhausted, please see tuning(7).
Looking at netstat -m, I get the following:
144/9472/26624 mbufs in use (current/peak/max):
134 mbufs
