I seem to have mbuf leak or at least some app is being a bit of a
pig. Standard symptoms dmesg WARNING: mclpool limit reached;
increase NMBCLUSTERS, and system hanging. I have poked around the
archives but found no answers, just other people asking the same
question.
What tools are available for tracking and debugging mbuf usage?
I have found netstat -m, but notice that Open BSD gives more info ;-)
any others?
netstat -m
39969 mbufs in use:
36351 mbufs allocated to data
3618 mbufs allocated to packet headers
23356 calls to protocol drain routines
Please reply directly to me, just joined the list etc...
Thanks.
