:What is MAX_PERF option?
:It's in sys/i386/i386/pmap.c, sys/kern/kern_lock.c, 
:sys/vm/swap_pager.c and others.

:Thanx,

    It stands for 'maximum performance'.  If you set this option, the kernel
    will not bother making certain sanity checks within itself.  

    Basically you should not set the option unless you need a really tiny 
    kernel binary.  It will not improve performance noticeably.
