Actually, this problem is memory allocation related (libverify implements own mechanizm of small chunks allocation). And appears while running most of memory consuming java applications (at 4-STABLE only). Unfortunatelly, because of concentration on FreeBSD 5.x/6.x support, I do not have enough resources to continue FreeBSD 4.x line now. And so, if you've debug foo and some spare time be my guest and submit your patches/analyzis for these issues! > 3.

Yep, but please make sure you've up-to-date -CURRENT before issuing bugreport. > Please include Alexey in any problem reports for FreeBSD and Christos in > any problem reports for NetBSD. > > The patchset may be downloaded at: > > http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsddom/java/jdk15.html > > A java/jdk15 port for FreeBSD will follow shortly. > > -- > Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com > Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com > Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-java@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-java > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-java-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
