Dear developers,

I'm using no encryption and no compression in mpd, so netgraph should
fly.
It seems to get bad after 500 sessions...
In FreeBSD 6 - it's swi1: net - 100% CPU
In FreeBSD 7 - it's em0 taskq - 100% CPU
unfortunatly I've been totally ignoring this thread because it said
"trouble with em" in the topic..
If you'd said
trouble with mpd then maybe I'd have looked earlier..
After playing with it I can make guess that's a netgraph problem.
Maybe it's a poor design in netgraph the way it handle its tables and
it's is probably not designed to add so many interfaces.
how many?

I saw a peak with about 1900 ng interfaces. That was tooo sloowwww....

Linux with poptop was running quit smoothly. I thought that netgraph
would be fast as hell.
