Wow, using a whole 96K of swap.  I don't see any disk related
complaints in dmesg.

Is this something to worry about?

Yes, the system was *trying* to do swap I/O and timing out while doing so.

isn't swapspace supposed to be on a 'b' partition? Are you using swap on a slice 10? how is that possible when the i386/amd64 BIOS can't see more than 4 primary partitions?

Kris, would you mind giving input to this? How can there be a s10, and how can you add swapspace to a device that isn't a partition 'b' nor a file backed swapspace? Those were the only two ways I thought was supported for swap.

Dieter, does my questions above sound to be a correct interpretation of your disk setup?

swap can be put anywhere thesedays (post-FreeBSD 4.x), even on things that are not even simple disk devices.
