Since top reported what looked like ample swap, and buildworld seemed to run successfully, I didn't heed the warning: increase kern.maxswzone or reduce amount of swap. message. Would it be helpful to do so now? gpart show da0 reports => 0 122544516 da0 BSD (58G) 0 4194304 1 freebsd-ufs (2.0G) 4194304 4194304 2 freebsd-swap (2.0G) 8388608 6291456 4 freebsd-ufs (3.0G) 14680064 107864452 5 freebsd-ufs (51G) The units are somewhat baffling, since the apparent swap partition size does not match (numerically) the dmesg value.
