>Description:
Upon system startup the rpc.statd daemon immediately allocates 256 million bytes of memory.  About 1 million bytes are in core memory and the other 255 million bytes are swapped out.
In /etc/rc.conf, set 'rpc_statd_enable="YES"'.
It does not matter if 'nfs_server_enable="YES"' is set, nor if 'rpc_lockd_enable="YES"' is set.

Here is the output of ident /usr/sbin/rpc.statd:
