Hi > I use this in /etc/sysctl.conf: > kern.corefile=/tmp/cores/%N.core In rc.conf I have clear_tmp_enable="YES" I would have used tmpfs for /tmp but my zpool/tmp is on an SSD which gives about the same result as f<ar as /tmp is concerned. The ulimit setting seems to have solved it. ----- FreeBSD-11-current_amd64_root-on-zfs_RadeonKMS -- View this message in context: http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/Several-minor-annoyances-on-Current-tp5931653p5931773.html Sent from the freebsd-current mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

What I'd like to see is an article on freebsd.org either on the wiki or in the handbook, which compares using apt, yum, rpm, whatever to pkg. Is anyone interested in working on an article like this? I don't have the bandwidth right now. -- Craig
