I assumed that these problems were well known, but in talking to a few people, they'd never heard of any of this. I apologize if I'm getting annoying with these bug reports that are probably already known by those who care, but since October 15th is getting closer, I thought I'd repeat... Random occurances of: swap_pager: suggest more swap space: 254 MB When there obviously is plenty of ram/swap available. I happened to be in 'top' the last time this occurred. I saw a flash of 'k_getuid: kvm_getprocs' fly across the screen, and the above message suggesting more swap. The last printout from top before it exited was: last pid: 15377; load averages: 1.63, 1.44, 1.40 23:07:02 153 processes: 1 running, 152 sleeping Mem: 75M Active, 10M Inact, 23M Wired, 9116K Cache, 8348K Buf, 6396K Free Swap: 164M Total, 46M Used, 118M Free, 28% Inuse pindent complains a lot about bad addresses, and kvm_getprocs not working.. (yet still works 90% of the time) Processes get stuck randomly in 'vmwait'. (can be killed with -9 though) Processes can get stuck in 'nfsrcv' when an nfs server dies and comes back. (are unkillable) 'killall -HUP mountd' causes 'panic: vfs_unlock: not locked' if the server is busy. (this occurs in -STABLE, too) de0 driver is still unstable under heavy (full-duplex 100mb 60-70% utilization) traffic. (causes random page fault while in kernel mode) This will probably be one of my last bug reports before I go back to -STABLE. We bit the bullet and just bought some fast PII/400 servers instead of dealing with the problems of SMP pentium/pentium pro's. (as much as I like -current, our customers are complaining heavily about the once-a-week crashes) If there's any information anyone wants before we newfs our drives, please tell me know. :) Kevin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
