Does your em(4) interface wedge for some time? Do you see a lot of errors in 'netstat -i' output? Does these errors increase not monotonously but they have peaks? If the answer is yes, then the attached patch is likely to fix your = problem. If the answer is no, then you are still encouraged to help with testing and install the patch to check that no regressions are introduced. If = you skip this, then you may encounter regressions after release, so you have been warned. So, in short: please test! Thanks in advance! The patch is against fresh RELENG_6. --=20 Totus tuus, Glebius. GLEBIUS-RIPN GLEB-RIPE
