Sometime this weekend I did stable cvsup/installworld on a very slow box
It wasn't exactly event free, but I think it should have worked okay.
Now I get:

# top
kvm_open: proc size mismatch (73872 total, 1252 chunks)
top: Out of memory.


Nothing else odd noted, this box is real slow so it will take me a while
to reproduce. I'm preparing another box which may be faster.

BTW - has rsync as part of the base install been ruled out for any reason?
