Hmm. Do you have a custom setting for kern.ipc.nmbclusters in loader.conf or
sysctl.conf? What does kern.ipc.nmbclusters configure itself to on your
system? Also, could you send me the output of uname -a on the system?
Thanks,

After running "netstat -s -p tcp", we found that lots of packets are
discarded due to memory problems. We googled for it, and found that sysctl
oid "net.inet.tcp.reass.maxsegments" became 0, therefore packets never
reassembled.
Then we checked our /boot/loader.conf and /etc/sysctl.conf, and found that
setting kern.ipc.nmbclusters="0" makes net.inet.tcp.reass.maxsegments=0.
After setting net.inet.tcp.reass.maxsegments="1600" in /boot/loader.conf,
the network works perfectly now.
Was it set to 0 through a configuration error, or did the system auto-tune
improperly?
