Same story, rl on cable modem, I do see it oscillating a bit, but the tendency
is steadily up:
1834 mbufs in use:
1655 mbufs allocated to data
14 mbufs allocated to packet headers
165 mbufs allocated to socket names and addresses
428/658/6144 mbuf clusters in use (current/peak/max)
1812 Kbytes allocated to network (72% in use)
0 requests for memory denied
0 requests for memory delayed
0 calls to protocol drain routines
Compared to 1500 from a week ago. (no reboot in between)
