during operation, what does 'netstat -m' say ? if you need to increase
number of mbufs or mbuf clusters, look at NMBCLUSTERS and NMBUFS in your
kernel config file. see LINT for the details. the mbuf area is autosized
to (512 + maxusers*16) by default, but you can increase this as above or
by just increasing MAXUSERS.
