Does this explain why my development box (with FreeBSD, NetBSD and XFree86 repo mirrors and about three full FreeBSD source trees checked out) has a shitload of FFS nodes and spends 8% of its time running syncer, resulting in crappy interrupt latency? Or is that a different bug? If this is the one, I'm immensely grateful that you fixed it.
