Ryan has been able to reproduce this in a VM with 4GB, similarly a VM with 2GB loads just fine. It would seem that 4GB triggers a bug in limit handling. We're hoping that we can simply lower one of the default limits on i386 and make the problem go away. Please don't shoot the messenger when I observe that, generally speaking, i386 is considered a self supported platform due to ZFS general inability to perform well with limited memory or KVA. Long mode has been available on virtually all processors shipped since 2006. Cheers. -M _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
