Yah, I don't know, haven't had an issue on my news feeder box, but
here is my output:

[12:43pm] 6 [~]:canary% netstat -m
4107409126 mbufs in use
4159799080/25600 mbuf clusters in use (current/max)

0 requests for sfbufs denied
0 requests for sfbufs delayed

1.5GB allocated for network?

Considering I am only seeing 177MB wired, that seems kind of odd.
