If you do a large extraction it will consume all of KVM and cause your panic. Unless you're running diskless and this is your only option besides NFS, either don't use tmpmfs or avoid extracting large amounts of data to /tmp. > panic: kmem_malloc(16384): kmem_map too small: 86233088 total allocated -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve dwhite@gumbysoft.com | www.FreeBSD.org
