Every now and this I hear people saying (mostly you :)) that some problems are KVA related or that the KVA must be increased. This makes me a bit curious, since I've never seen problems like that on Linux. It sounds for me, the not kernel hacker, a bit like something which should be set at boot time (or via sysctl). Have you got some pointers which explain FreeBSD's KVA ? Regards, Marc "Premature optimization is the root of all evil." -- Donald E.
