Hello.

Is this normal, that in a box with 16GB, mpt(4) and isp(4) startup takes
just 7 minutes, while after adding a nice MAXMEM=(2048*1024) option to
the kernel it drops suddenly to ~ minute?

And I sort of suspect, that my issues with panics when using a FC array
via the ISP2312 controller are quite related to the amound of the
memory. 

Looks like those mentioned aboce drivers are not exactly
4+GB-memory-clean, or whatever.
