Currently I have 1 v0 [console] and two v1, v2 normal consoles. The 
system normally keeps a load average of about .2 or less because with <10 
users there really isn't much going on. Whenever I try to have BSD setup 
more virtual consoles, the load average never drops below 1.0, and 
infact, adds by about 1.2x the previous load average for each console I 
add. Three is really sort of cramped sometimes. 

Any ideas? The system actually seems to slow down with more consoles 
open, so I don't think its just a math problem.

Thanks a lot,

Jerry.
