Bump flowset buckets

[Paladinemishakal]

Hi All,

Previously I have pfSense 2.0.1-Release (i386) installed as a vm in VMware 4.1.0 with 2 vCPU and 4GB RAM. Recently I have migrated my pfSense to VMware 5.1.0 and upgraded to 4 CPU and 8GB RAM. After successfully powering my pfSense 2.0.1 RC1 (i386) on the new vmware server, I proceed to upgrade pfSense to 2.0.3-Release (i386).

I tried to use Traffic Shaper but when I check in my vmware console, the console is showing
Bump flowset buckets to 64 (was 0)

Checking in /var/log/syslog, I got these errors:
Jun  4 17:28:19 fw01 syslogd: sendto: No buffer space available
Jun  4 17:28:19 fw01 syslogd: sendto: No buffer space available

This is the /boot/loader.conf
autoboot_delay="3"
vm.kmem_size="435544320"
vm.kmem_size_max="535544320"
kern.ipc.nmbclusters="0"
kern.hz=100vmblock_load="YES"
vmmemct_load="YES"
vmhgfs_load="YES"
vmxnet_load="YES"

This is the /etc/sysctl.conf

Can anybody tell me what is the "Bump flowset buckets to 64" means? What setting do I need to look into?

Should I look into adjusting the vm.kmem_size and vm.kmem_size_max value? What value should I set for the vm.kmem_size and vm.kmem_size_max?
I read that FreeBSD 8.1 kernel is able to auto-adjust the value but it does not seem to be using the full memory I have given to the system.

Would anyone be able to help?

Thanks & Regards.

Hi All,

I installed a vm using the pfSense 2.0.3-Release i386 for testing.
I tried to change the vm.kmem_size to 1GB and vm.kmem_size_max to 2GB but after that the pfSense cannot boot and I got this error:
KDB: debugger backends: ddb
KDB: current backend: ddb
1048576K of memory above 4GB ignored
panic: kmem_suballoc: bad status return of 3
