That's very helpful! I had read about that and wondered if it applied
to i386.
Should I have expected "superpages" to completely cure the condition...
or does it just help? Should I now be looking at tuning the related
pmap sysctls to give further relief?
Thanks!

The warning is not applicable any longer including your version as
well as
several previous ones. The warning has been removed from current
releases.
For amd64, yes, but not i386. It can't be removed from i386.
