kern.bufcachepercent is set to 20 in the current CVS tree.
The snapshot from april 25th set it to 90. This almost killed the rest
of the little "performance" my old machine has.
Setting kern.bufcachepercent back to 20 helped here.
I don't see this as a bug. I'm happy with adding a line to sysctl.conf.
I just wanted to provide some small feedback to the devs which put the
changed setting in snapshots.
Of course I should include dmesg, see below.
