For those running -stable in heavy production use:

Anyone running maxusers > 128?
Anyone setting nmbclusters >= 8192?

I have a 2.2.8 system with maxusers set to 512 and nmbclusters set to
8192, and I'm *still* in need of more resources (e.g., a panic induced
yesterday by "Out of mbuf clusters - increase maxusers!").  I was planning
on moving (through a reinstall, actually) to 3.x-stable, but I want to be
sure I'm not chomping off more than can be chewed.  I know about the
panics various people have seen - I'm confident that'll be cleaned up.
I'm more concerned about posts I've seen recently claiming "you shouldn't
push maxusers > 128 on 3.x-stable" - I just wanted to know if this was
dependent on any factors I could mitigate.

Thanks.

	Brian
