Re: nfsd becomes slow when machine CPU usage is at or over 100% on STABLE/13

I've been building default kernel, that is GENERIC for releng and stable branches.

I see GENERIC-NODEBUG on head but don't seem to find it on releng/ nor stable/
I grepped /usr/src/* for std.nodebug but don't seem have a match...
I wonder how nodebug kicks in releng.

I added "enable DDB" to i386 kernel but didn't touch amd64 kernel.
Both amd64 and i386 looks okay with releng/13.1.
