I forgot to run fstat. :(

fstat /opt2/branches/freenas/os-base/amd64/_.w/usr/ports/distfiles
USER     CMD          PID   FD MOUNT      INUM MODE         SZ|DV R/W NAME

Since I run the GNOME desktop, gnome has a dependency on the gamin port.
The gamin port contains gam_server.
gamin monitors file system activity.  It looks like gam_server gets
triggered
when things are mounted, and for some reason, sometimes fails to go away.

I need to read http://people.gnome.org/~veillard/gamin/config.html and
figure out how to disable gamin,
or just remove gamin from my system.  Annoying. :(
