The most recent is http://marc.info/?l=freebsd-stable&m=119428719505129&w=2, but it started way back at http://marc.info/?l=freebsd-current&m=118998090512027&w=2. I've tried a lot of stuff in between, and all I've been able to narrow it down to is that it's not a display driver issue, and that none of my swap partition is getting used, so that's not the problem. During compiles, my UP system with ULE still gets very unresponsive when compiling, sometimes taking up to 10 seconds just to draw a new terminal window. Even changing focus with the window manager can take several seconds. I'd like to provide more info, but I'm not sure what stats are useful for this particular issue. Please let me know. dmesg is at http://redundancy.redundancy.org/dmesg.txt, and kernel config is at http://redundancy.redundancy.org/DEEPTHOUGHT. Even though I'm still getting reported 80-95% memory utilization and no paging, I'm going to get an extra gig of RAM on order to see if that improves things. 2G of ram for a desktop, what's the world coming to? ;) Thanks, David
