On alpha-current 2 days old:
ticso@cicely9# df -ki /tmp
Filesystem  1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity iused   ifree  %iused  Mounted on
/dev/md10c     815896        8   750624     0%       1   25597     0%   /tmp

The number of inodes expects an average Filesize of 32k.
Before it was something around 4k which is more sane.
My /usr (with the big alpha binaries) has an avarange file size of 23k.
My /usr on an i386 has an avarage of 12k.
The current default is not even near a sane value!


Smaller partition sizes are completly failing:
ticso@cicely9# mdconfig -a -t swap -s 100M -u 30
ticso@cicely9# disklabel -r -w md30 auto
ticso@cicely9# newfs /dev/md30c
Warning: Block size restricts cylinders per group to 65161.
inode blocks/cyl group (54) >= data blocks (-1536000)
number of cylinders per cylinder group (65161) must be increased.
Exit 29

ticso@cicely9# mdconfig -a -t swap -s 200M -u 40
ticso@cicely9# disklabel -r -w md40 auto
ticso@cicely9# newfs /dev/md40c
Warning: Block size restricts cylinders per group to 65161.
inode blocks/cyl group (104) >= data blocks (-1536000)
number of cylinders per cylinder group (65161) must be increased.
Exit 29

ticso@cicely9# mdconfig -a -t swap -s 300M -u 50
ticso@cicely9# disklabel -r -w md50 auto
ticso@cicely9# newfs /dev/md50c
Warning: Block size restricts cylinders per group to 65160.
inode blocks/cyl group (154) >= data blocks (-1540096)

Exit 29

Sigh....
