Hi, my system has 16 GB RAM: % inxi CPU: 8-Core Intel Core i7-2820QM (-MCP-) speed/min/max: 2292/800/2301 MHz OS: FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE-p3 amd64 Up: 3m Mem: 3541.6/16222.2 MB (21.8) Storage: 3.81 TiB (87.9% used) Procs: 93 Shell: Zsh inxi: 3.1.07 Before the test about 12 GB RAM was free. After I executed these I got instant panic/restart of the system. # mdconfig -a -t malloc -s 8G -u 10 # geli onetime -s 4096 /dev/md10 # dd bs=1m if=/dev/zero of=/dev/md10.eli status=progress Hope that helps. Regards.
What was the panic?
(In reply to Mark Johnston from comment #1) System rebooted instantly without any info on the screen. Like you would press the 'reset' button.
Reproducible with any/all of the following? 12.3-RELEASE-p10 13.1-RELEASE-p5 14.0-CURRENT Thanks (<https://www.freebsd.org/releases/12.4R/> at a glance, nothing related in release notes.)
Just tried this on 13.1-RELEASE-p5 system. Does not hang. Regards.
