Is one supposed to look elsewhere? Worse, the use of malloc-based mds is touted in rc.conf as something, that is supposed to help "system stability at low memory conditions". All I did on this system, was set tmpmfs="YES" tmpsize="2048m" in the /etc/rc.conf. Alex has already said, that using malloc-backed md is a bad default -- do you disagree? -mi
