I think that helped a bit, but I am still noticing about 10 second
delays when trying to run, top and mbmon for instance, while unpacking
pkgsrc.tar.gz. No swap is being used at all.
I'll try out that BUFQ option. I was a little bit hesitant to use it
because of the freezing issues I had read about though. I can't find
anywhere saying they've been fixed.
Thanks
