I turned softupdates on and set kern.maxvnodes=9999999. I did 'make -j16 buildworld'. It used all RAM and part of swap, swap was clear before and there were 135M of 'free' RAM (not even 'inactive'). It finished normally. Simultaneosly 3 different Apache binaries serve web sites, MySQL database every 5 minutes takes peaks of load, NFS server and NFS client serve several processes doing read/write, cvsupd server take little load, cron daemon runs many jobs every 5 and even 1 minute. I'm pretty sure my memory is OK. It was OK for 2 years and my troubles start right after last world update. I note all crashes were while I was online and there was pppd running kernel-level PPP service with PPP_DEFLATE. I'll try to reproduce crash.
