Yes, console history contains the line
warning: total configured swap (524288 pages) exceeds maximum recommended amount (405460 pages).
Since top reported what looked like ample swap, and buildworld seemed to
run successfully, I didn't heed the
warning: increase kern.maxswzone or reduce amount of swap.
message.
Would it be helpful to do so now? gpart show da0 reports
=> 0 122544516 da0 BSD (58G)
0 4194304 1 freebsd-ufs (2.0G)
4194304 4194304 2 freebsd-swap (2.0G)
8388608 6291456 4 freebsd-ufs (3.0G)
14680064 107864452 5 freebsd-ufs (51G)
The units are somewhat baffling, since the apparent swap partition
size does not match (numerically) the dmesg value.
Thanks for writing!
