I spent now the last three days trying to figure out whether my custom config is faulty
or CURRENT has a serious bug. Even with GENERIC and in single user mode (it takes then
longer) CURRENT, now at r307823, is crashing. The crashes seem to be unrelated to X11,
but I can trigger this crash faster when using firefox. I also can trigger it faster when
doing a "svn update" on a ZFS pool containing /usr/ports. Everyone who uses ZFS
on /usr/src or /usr/ports and updates via subversion knows that over time the update
process takes 10 - 15 minutes on ZFS volumes - compared to several minutes on UFS. And
while svn traverses the folder /usr/ports, the crash occurs.
I'm still wondering about the fact nobody else is facing such a periodically crashing.
The crash is, I already reported this, with CURRENT on several boxes with or without ZFS.
How can I track a memory leak?
How can I write to disk the backtrace given by the debugger when crashing? My box I can
freely test is using the nVidia BLOB and vt(), so I can not see the backtrace. I got a
very bad screenshot on one of my laptops, but its so ugly/unreadable, I think it is
unsuable to be presented within this list at a reasonable size (200 kB max ist too small).
