This time around it crashed with a panic("nfsreq nogrps")
I am also seeing this:
Jul 27 08:40:31 shell2 /kernel: vnode_pager_getpages: I/O read error
Jul 27 08:40:32 shell2 /kernel: vm_fault: pager input (probably hardware) error,
PID 690 failure
Jul 27 08:40:32 shell2 /kernel: vnode_pager_getpages: I/O read error

This type of thing is occuring a whole lot... every couple of hours.
It always seems to be coming from FTPD.
The ftpd executable in this case is *ON* an NFS partition. While the
messages are not really verbose enough, I believe the failure is occuring
when shell2 tries to page in some pages from the ftpd executable over NFS.
Another thing of interest: ftpd is modes 550 root.wheel, meaning that a
screwup in the ucred *could* be causing the read failure. Thus there
could be a relationship with the panic and the vnode_pager_getpages
fazilures if ucred is somehow getting corrupted or it's reference count
is getting messed up.
I do not see a correlation with the bio_done page_busy < 0 problem so far.

For the time being, I have moved the ftpd executable to local disk and will
observe if the pager errors still occur.
