Interesting Fact Of The Day: I just noticed that the syncer process is
eating up heaps of CPU, (5%-10% continuously, even when the system is
idle and there is *no* disk activity), and that running sync(1) hangs
the machine for a couple of seconds and causes sio and kbd interrupts
to be lost.  Maybe the removal of vm_mtx is the culprit?
