How much free space does the /usr partition have on it? - i.e. tracked over time... The only time I've seen message like the above is where the free space starts dipping under the 10% barrier... As the space get's tight the FS starts optimising storage for space (to conserve it), and as the free space returns it switches back to time optimisation to improve read access etc. -Kp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
