:    <para>The <varname>kern.maxvnodes</varname> limit now properly
:    limits the number of vnodes in use.  Previously only vnodes with
:    no cached pages could be freed; this could allow the number of
:    vnodes to grow without limit on large-memory machines accessing
:    many small files.  A <literal>vnlru</literal> kernel thread helps
:    to flush and reuse vnodes.</para>
