If you can get a kernel core, run vmstat -m on it to see what the state
of the allocation hoppers was.

On tuesday I crashed a machine after it ran out of kvm. (dual PII 400 with
768MB RAM) poking about in the code adding:
options VM_KMEM_SIZE=(24*1024*1024)
options VM_KMEM_SIZE_MAX=(128*1024*1024)
seems like a good way foward. Is it?

If anyone has any more of these tunables that can easily be enhanced
like this, please let me know.
Is there a way from the boot loader that one can find out what options
are available to be tuned?
At the moment, the values are picked up on-demand by the kernel as it's
initialising

I just committed a tweak that allows you to say:
set kern.vm.kmem.size=value
at the loader prompt or in /boot/loader.rc to override the default
VM_KMEM_SIZE value.
