What I also like about it is that it counts [vr]forks to boot, plus vmpages affected by the fork. After I first saw this in OBSD I was really motivated to do just what you've done for FreeBSD, but never got around to it. If you like, I'll see if I can't come up with something similar. Shouldn't be too hard. I'll try that tonight. The hardest part would be finding a spot on the systat(1) display to put it. :-) -Paul.
