Re: HELP!! with mbuf clusters

Ok Thanks, but with maxusers set to 500 it should be using 16000 or so mbuf
clusters if it is using the formula in param.h (512+ maxusers * 16)

The size was already on 256*1024*1024. :)

i PUT IT UP TO 512... do you think that's wise?

and i have changed the formula to 512 + maxusers * 32

hmmm maybe that'll work. Why would it be using so many any way though?

any more ideas? thanks again for your reply :)
