 Howdy,

 Not a whole lot done, I had the MAXUSERS set to 128, though am about to
bump it to 256 when I rebuild to see if that helps.  I used to have some
tunables for BSDI when I used it, but when I tried to apply them to FBSD
it bitched about them being unknown so I just left them out.  Was also 
going to move NMBCLUSTERS up to 20480, not sure if thats the solution or
not.  I can post the whole config if desired, but really it's very close
to the GENERIC except I added SOFTUPDATES, and removed all the drivers I
didn't need for my system to hopefully slim it down some..
