 Have you tried it with the tune for Diskd mentioned.

Hi Mike
 Yes, it does work quite well. But not if I use the
same tuning parameters used on systems running on Non
Serverworks chipsets. (Tyan S2881 or S2882 Board)

 I use these for supporting many heavy loaded Squid
servers. 

 The normal tweaks suggested for Squid, and work well
on Non Serverworks chipsets are:

/boot/loader.conf
kern.ipc.maxsockets=16424
kern.ipc.msgmnb=16384
kern.ipc.msgmni=41
kern.ipc.msgseg=2049
kern.ipc.msgssz=64
kern.ipc.msgtql=2048
 OR
kern.ipc.msgmnb=8192
kern.ipc.msgmni=40
kern.ipc.msgseg=512
kern.ipc.msgssz=64
kern.ipc.msgtql=1024

 However, with any setting of kern.ipc.msgtql (What
does it do anyway?) above 64 the server crashes with
the Bonnie test.

 The higher the setting the faster the crash.
