Yes, recompile your kernel with "maxusers 128" or more. This tweaks a bunch of stuff, notably mbufs. E.g. with 128 "users" I've got: 226/1920/10240 mbufs in use (current/peak/max): 159 mbufs allocated to data 67 mbufs allocated to packet headers 130/1438/2560 mbuf clusters in use (current/peak/max) 3116 Kbytes allocated to network (9% in use) 0 requests for memory denied 0 requests for memory delayed 0 calls to protocol drain routines --Renaud ----- Original Message ----- From: "Len Conrad" To: Sent: Tuesday, February 20, 2001 1:36 PM Subject: Fwd: Re: Re: postfix: No buffer space available > Here's what has happened with the advice earlier: > > >tried to add the following via sysctl.conf > > > >kern.ipc.maxsockets = 5000 > >kern.ipc.maxsockbuf = 524288 > > > >But neither parameter takes effect. > > are these read-only values?? and: > > ># netstat -m > >445/720/4096 mbufs in use (current/peak/max): > > 172 mbufs allocated to data > > 273 mbufs allocated to packet headers > >154/252/1024 mbuf clusters in use (current/peak/max) > >684 Kbytes allocated to network (61% in use) > >0 requests for memory denied > >0 requests for memory delayed > >0 calls to protocol drain routines > > Anybody got any other ideas how scale FreeBSD up to postfix's needs? > > tia, > Len > > > http://BIND8NT.MEIway.com : Binary for ISC BIND 8.2.3 for NT4 & W2K > http://IMGate.MEIway.com : Build free, hi-perf, anti-spam mail gateways > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
