Bug 16339

Summary:	vm/vm_page.h PQ_L2_SIZE options too limited

Description dje 2000-01-25 02:30:01 UTC

PQ_LARGECACHE and PQ_HUGECACHE do not provide enough range, for instance
my FIC PA-2013 motherboard has 2M of L2 cache.  Editing vm_page.h with
each OS upgrade seems like a maintenance problem that more easily could
be handled by a redesign of this option.

Fix: 

I would like to be able to specify the L2 page size as a value directly
in the system configuration file, e.g. PQ_L2_SIZE=512.
