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.. --- Howard Leadmon - howardl@abs.net - http://www.abs.net ABSnet Internet Services - Phone: 410-361-8160 - FAX: 410-361-8162 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
