Re: vnlur_proc lockups under high disk I/O

I've attached the dmesg output. I'm running memory and disk diagnostics 
as it's strange that its only just started. (I haven't run a buildworld 
in a week but only noticed the problem yesterday.)

Extracting a large tar file while the CPU is under load nearly always 
triggers the problem. It's as if disk IO operations take longer and 
longer until they eventually time out locking the machine. You can watch 
the disk activity led go from constant to briefly flashing at increasing 
intervals.

Buildworlds also gradually slow to a crawl but so far haven't resulted 
in the vnlru_proc errors.

The first time it happened I was running "make -j 4 buildworld" on the 
console and extracting the pkgsrc tarball to /usr/pkgsrc via a SSH session.

Regards

Gary
