Now I bumped kern.vm.kmem.size 4 times to 40960000 (which leads to 20k max-mem for FFS node) and still can't tar /usr/ports to /dev/null! Where comes the increased memory consumption from ?!? BTW: What is the KMEM exactly: Kernel real memory? Kernel virtual memory? Thanks anyway for your answer and your efforts!
