I can reproduce the problem very easily -- just start 'make -j64 buildworld'. With 32M RAM and 128M swap it will 'suggest more swap' in half an hour, and then I sometimes have the situation when cron/sendmail/etc fail to work. They just fork and childs die, despite the fact that memory shortage has already gone and makeworld has finished some 10 hours ago! It happened last time about a week ago (with CURRENT that time old). As no changes seem to be made to VM since then, I assume that today's CURRENT is not better. :(( Quite ordinary hardware, working perfect in all situations (except mentioned memory shortage). >> This number 6 or 7 of subscribing our lists, because >> my computer with 32 Mbytes of memory tracks -current >> and sendmail's childs are getting killed on segfaults >> when I start netscape or so.

I assume that majordomo@freebsd.org is unsubscribing a man when the sendmail on his box fails in described above way, and majordomo gets too many bounces (?) >> sorry for my poor english. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ AK> Don't understand your problem, sorry.
