Yeah, i know that they are usually hardware.  But what about this?

I've just upgraded my old notebook to 2.2.  It's a sluggish old
386/sx16, with just 5 MB RAM only, the bare minimum being supported by
sysinstall these days.  Now i'm compiling a custom kernel on it, and
get occasional sig 4's, sig 10's, and sig 11's on it.

The thing is, this box has been running FreeBSD for at least two years
now flawlessly.  Sure, the machine is already fairly loaded with just
compiling a kernel (there are ~ 6 MB in the swap partition).  But
again, it used to work well previously...  I even used to run Emacs
under X11 on it, and that was at least the same load.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
