Hello FreeBSD users.  I received this message immediately after (or as
part of) my gateway's startup. 

login: Jun 14 07:09:41 kaneda /kernel: /var: optimization changed from 
SPACE to TIME

This may or may not be the place to ask this question, but could anyone
satisfy my curiosity and explain (or point me to some documentation that
explains) which process or part of the kernel makes this decision and what
are the reasons/criteria for the change.

Thanks,
Steve
