Did any of you find out what caused this?  I see this on my computer:

| [burton] ~> sysctl kern.malloc | grep acpica
|        acpica 42884  2658K       -  1127825  
16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048
| [burton] ~> uptime
| 11:02am  up 4 days, 16:45, 0 users, load averages: 0.51, 0.24, 0.10

This is a EPoX 8K9A7I motherboard with AMD Athlon XP 2500+ (Barton) 
processor.  According to the acpi it is a KT400A AWRDACPI.
