Just a thought - did anything happen to your swap configuration or similar 
when you reinstalled FreeBSD? INN keeps everything in memory and grows to be 
a very large process. In my configuration it starts out at around 2MB at 
boot-time and slowly grows over the next hour or so to 6-7MB. This could 
interact with a swap or memory problem with the result you describe.
