I've never seen a modern version of FreeBSD lock up as a result of this, so that's a little odd. > Does anyone have a suggestion on how I should go about troubleshooting this or > what I should change my PMAP_SHPGPERPROC to?

I fixed it by adding the setting to my kernel config and building a new kernel. I believe you can also set it in loader.conf I haven't tried setting it higher than 250 (haven't had the need) but I've seen some posts suggesting that setting it too high can cause kernel panics. I recommend bumping it to 250, then go to 300 if the problem doesn't go away -- but in any event, don't increase it drastically. -- Bill Moran http://www.potentialtech.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
