:Do I still need to lower kern.maxvnodes to avoid the panic on machine
:with >=2G bytes of RAM?  I still see this panic while running blogbench
:for a couple of hours, without increasing or decreasing kern.maxvnodes.
:
:  (kgdb) bt
:	:
:  #2  0xc0198e0c in panic (fmt=0xc02e71dd "%s: malloc limit exceeded")
:      at /home/source/dragonfly/current/src/sys/kern/kern_shutdown.c:800

    I'd like to get another crash dump if possible, before you lower the
    limit.  There is still clearly an issue which I would like to get
    fixed before the January release.

    Once you get a crash dump over to leaf then please lower the limit
    and see if you can panic the machine.
