Yah, I don't know, haven't had an issue on my news feeder box, but
here is my output:
[12:43pm] 6 [~]:canary% netstat -m
4107409126 mbufs in use
4159799080/25600 mbuf clusters in use (current/max)
0/6/6656 sfbufs in use (current/peak/max)
1541129 KBytes allocated to network
0 requests for sfbufs denied
0 requests for sfbufs delayed
0 requests for I/O initiated by sendfile
743625 calls to protocol drain routines
[12:43pm] 7 [~]:canary% uname -a
FreeBSD canary.octanews.net 5.4-STABLE FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE #0: Thu Apr 28 20:05:25 CDT 2005 root@canary.octanews.net:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/CANARY i386
1.5GB allocated for network?
Considering I am only seeing 177MB wired, that seems kind of odd.
