This is complicated but we need a simple user visible view of it.  It

physical ram, with machine dependent limits".  The MD limits are bad
enough, and using bogo-units like "maxusers" just makes it worse.

Yes, that would be optimal.

No it would not.

I used to be able to tell people "hey just try increasing maxusers"
and they would and suddenly the
box would be OK.

Now I'll have to remember 3,4,5,10,20x tunable to increase?

No.  The whole mbuf and cluster stuff isn't allocated or reserved
at boot time.  We simply need a limit to prevent it from exhausting
all available kvm / physical memory whichever is less.


For now, we have limit which does not allow to run even one igb(4) NIC
in 9k jumbo configuration.

My patch for mbuf* zone auto-sizing does fix that, or not?
