I'm trying to track down a weird hang/panic in 5.3-RC* which seems to happen after 1-1.5 days on my desktop machine. The one time I saw the panic message it complained about kmem_map being full. This morning I noticed that the kernel memory used for kqueues was a bit larger than expected so I started to monitor it more closely. I soon found out what seems to be the problem: mozilla keeps lots of kqueue file descriptors open: > lsof | fgrep mozilla | fgrep KQUEUE | wc -l 1137 This number grows over time (I have mozilla running permanently with lots of tabs, most of which auto-refresh). Does anybody see something similar with mozilla on 5.3-RC*? A ktrace of the mozilla process seems to point to the DNS resolver code leaking kqueue descriptors (I could not find any kqueue() calls in the mozilla code itself).
