Now... in case someone here is willing to help instead of talking, feel free to go to http://wiki.freebsd.org/BenchmarkAdvice and have a look what can be improved.

A tuning page in the wiki - which could be referenced from the benchmark page - would be great too. Any volunteers? A first step would be to take he tuning-man-page and wikify it.

I can say with certainty that this value belongs in /etc/make.conf (on RELENG_8 and earlier at least). src/share/mk/bsd.own.mk has no framework for MK_MALLOC_PRODUCTION, so, this is definitely a make.conf variable. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, US | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
