Thanks, John.  I wish that it were that simple, that is if I am interpreting
pstat and vmstat correctly.

/root # pstat -s
Device          1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Type
/dev/rad0s2b       262016        0   262016     0%    Interleaved    

I have two another disks that aren't being used with an additional 512M of swap
each  that are not being mounted because this machine isn't carrying much load
right now.

  /root # vmstat
 procs      memory     page                    disks     faults      cpu
 r b w     avm   fre  flt  re  pi  po  fr  sr ad0 ad2   in   sy  cs us sy id
 0 2 0  118972 15100  849   0   1   0 834   4   0   0  414 3136 599 33  8 59    

It really seems to be related to my upgrading to XFree86-4.0.2_3 and KDE-2.  If
no one else is seeing it, it isn't critical and with patience it'll show itself
with a little time.

Thanks,

ed
