 I've had the same problem with the xl driver.  It appears that the
 driver is occasionally consuming mbufs clusters faster than it can
 release them.  This is not a memory leak -- eventually all the buffers
 are returned.  Increasing NMBCLUSTERS seems to solve that problem:
 
 options         NMBCLUSTERS=16384
