starting a make world. I stopped it after I noticed that the disk was getting an incredible pounding during C compilations that previously would be almost totally CPU-bound. My impression from "systat -vmstat" was that somehow the effectiveness of the namei cache had gotten drastically reduced, and the lookups of the names of include files were causing a lot of disk activity.

Has anyone else seen this?

Same here. Very very slow (I was compiling sendmail, guess why ? :-))
