I t seems I found a pattern on my machine

the problem happens only with dynamic pipes using the=20
=2E.. mask src-ip|dst-ip 0xffffffff

using individual pipes and bw definitions for each appearently the problem=
=20
does not appear (here)

I have not your traffic but here it freezes after a couple of hours or so

this morning I needed to open the firewall and did it issuing ipfw add 1 pa=
ss=20
ip from any to any and the server freezed imediately

I could repeat it, opening the fw after some pipes are counting and the=20
machine freeze the same moment

so far I didn't get the freeze with individual pipes

I got one panic which pointed to pmap (curr proc cc anothertime syncer, I w=
as=20
compiling the kernel) what is strange also, because almost ever compiling=20
something as kernel or world triggers the freeze but only when dynamic pipe=
s=20
are underway and more strange only with SATA disks not on SCSI, without=20
dynamic pipes I can stress the disk as much as I want and it runs stable

If i restart the firewall by flushing all rules first I can compile without=
=20
problems

I am sure this is no hardware thing because I changed it completly several=
=20
times

I am with latest sources and kernel/world from this night

=2D-=20
