I've been running it for a couple years now on both setups without issue. Further, it doesn't use the kvm interface itself. Does smbfs really need that much kernel memory? This sounds somewhat like a memory leak in smbfs... not that I see offhand where it uses kvm either. > > > --Boundary_(ID_aWXkwFL+ok7p/STGmaBrHA) > Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 > Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT > > > > > > > > >

> I hope this is the right way to reply. I had a panic, same message, with 5.x for a long time. Kept posting but no one seemed to be able to offer much advice. Just thought I would add that I was mounting something with smbfs too, although since I didn't know it was smbfs I was always using it... you may be on to something? :) In the end I got fed up and went back to 4.x, which has been up twice as long so far BUT I don't have the samba share mounted ;) If it's worth trying to see if it panics after a while with smbfs, even on 4.x, I could do that. > --Boundary_(ID_aWXkwFL+ok7p/STGmaBrHA)-- > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > -- Internet Explorer?
