Maybe you'd better describe the full machine configuration. Memory, disks, swap configuration, and so forth. It looks to me like it's running out of memory, but it is very odd to see the pagedaemon and syncer both in a run state. I don't think it is softupdates per say, but softupdates could be exasperating some other problem. Just for the hell of it, try reducing debug.max_softdeps with a sysctl to something relatively small, like 100 or 200. -Matt :Hope this helps, : :Greg. : :To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org :with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message : Matthew Dillon Engineering, HiWay Technologies, Inc. & BEST Internet Communications & God knows what else.
