sysctl kern.mbuf values valid?
I noticed that sysctl thinks I have more than a million mbuf clusters!
# sysctl kern.mbuf
kern.mbuf.msize = 512
kern.mbuf.mclbytes = 2048
kern.mbuf.nmbclusters = 1048547
kern.mbuf.mblowat = 16
kern.mbuf.mcllowat = 8
Somehow this doesn't seem like a valid value, especially in view of the
values reported by vmstat -m

(Adding the InUse and Avail column shows just over 1100 entries in the
mclpl)
