I have Linux and FreeBSD clients running. The build system runs on 
Linux. All Linux's are UDP....

Also connect the build machine to the old 7.2/amd64/bge0/ufs machine, 
but there the count doesn't go over a few 1000 mbufs.

Mine are now:
41533/2402/43935 mbufs in use (current/cache/total)
41454/1572/43026/262144 mbuf clusters in use (current/cache/total/max)
39241/823 mbuf+clusters out of packet secondary zone in use (current/cache)

'mmmm, I did set the zvol version this morning also to 14 but I think 
that I ran into trouble already when still running version 13.

And the server was used as storage for the build system since the last 2 
weeks. Uptil yesterday without much trouble.
