used to be 32, after reading tuning, I reduced it to 16. No, if not 
mainly for compiling, I build world, kernel and ports on it. It's main 
usage is a nat router for our dsl connexion, and a webserver with mysql 
for a small web site ( 10 visit / day maximum ).

I just removed eisa, msdosfs and ipv6 but I need nfs. After recompile 
and reboot, I gained a little bit and here is the ps -auxw
http://massonerie.kicks-ass.org/psauxw

also, the 12th line of dmesg says :
http://massonerie.kicks-ass.org/dmesg

ACPI disabled by blacklist.  Contact your BIOS vendor.

but kldstat says acpi.ko is loaded. Is it safe to disable it ?


Thanks again for your time
