https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=271246 --- Comment #25 from Dave Hayes <dave@jetcafe.org> --- So, as part of monitoring, the machine in question does repeated netstats and hence is always in that state. It's just a matter of figuring out what statistics are useful to you in finding the problem, as I likely collect way too much. As you might have noticed, I can produce graphs of any sysctl MIB that is exposed to root users. Here is the information you requested: Mem: 66M Active, 1015M Inact, 4439M Wired, 1419M Buf, 10G Free It took some weeks for the machine to start thrashing last time, this is because the leak is very slow. My while loop above is just to make the leak more apparent. That vm pgcache value is still growing, even though I turned the loop off (as is wired memory). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
