Ran out of mbuf. I'm running a Freenet server on an Asus A7V8K with Athlon 2400+ and 1 Gig ram, plus two 15krpm SCSI 160 drives. I read the tuning man page and went back through alot of the email archives, but there is a lack of practical examples. This is the only one I found: kern.ipc.nmbuffers=65536 kern.ipc.maxsocbuf=2097152 kern.ipc.somaxconn=8192 kern.ipc.maxsockets=16424 kern.maxfiles=65536 kern.maxfilesperproc=32768 etc,etc What is a good /boot/loader.conf for a someone like me? I don't totally understand all of the tunables. Is there a good URL with info? The mailing list archives were mainly theoretical and beyond my understanding. Thanks, Rob. -- ----------------------------- The Numeric Python EM Project www.pythonemproject.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
