For me, I must run UP. What compile-options do you have in /etc/make.conf? Doing php I guess it's a web-server, what other apps are running on the server? Is the server located in a location with adequate cooling? May not apply any longer, but during the 5.1-days Scott Long advised me to add the following lines to /boot/loader.conf: echo vm.kmem_size=3D"450000000" >> /boot/loader.conf echo kern.maxvnodes=3D"200000" >> /boot/loader.conf That prevented my webservers from rebooting without any apparent reason. Too many temp-files was the cause. Try purging temp-files more often if the above lines do help. Claus
