I would need a kernel dump & kernel.debug binary to research that more (I'd need to track down why the page everyone is waiting on is locked). I don't know about the hardlock you reported. -Matt Matthew Dillon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
