That's the way to do it for 4.5, specifically. Because I am paranoid, I like to check the state of a measurement before making a change and then after, to see that what I did did indeed induce a change ... I have this irrational fear that sometimes I make changes like this and nothing in fact changed, and I just don't know it :) So, should I just look for the value of: vm.zone_kmem_kvaspace: 179691520 to increase in size even though the physical RAM stays the same at 3gigs, or is there some other measurement I should look at before and after the KVA increase to ensure that it worked (and yes, I know that if it doesn't work I probably will have an inoperable machine, but just out of curiousity...) thanks, PT To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
