This is what I get after about one hour while trying a fsck on a large
(1.4TB) partition "broken" since a power outage.
HW: HP DL380G5, under freebsd 6.1/i386, with 1GB of RAM and:
Your fsck will need roughly 1 GB memory per 1 TB file
system size. That formular was posted some time ago on
the -fs mailing list. It only applies with the default
newfs parameters -- if you used other parameters (inode
density, bsize/fsize), fsck's memory requirements are
different.
Now I added this to the /boot/loader.conf:
kern.maxdsiz="1073741824" # 1GB
kern.dfldsiz="1073741824" # 1GB
and I'm trying the fsck again, but I'm not sure it will help.
Given the above formula, it's probably not enough, so you
might have to increase it further. Also make sure that
you have enough swap space.
If you have a spare box, it might be helpful to transplant
some RAM from it so fsck doesn't have to swap.
Best regards
Oliver
