It appears that it's related to the fact that I was setting nmbclusters to 64000 during boot, when we reduced this to 60000, the problem was addressed. I wonder if raising the kva space would address this (ie be able to have that high (or even higher) nmbclusters) while not causing the machine to panic when it's doing things like a find. -mk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
