2.0F is not supposed to become a release anytime soon, it's the
bleeding edge development branch called "-current".

For a more stable environment, try 2.0_BETA, which will become 2.0
RSN. (cvs tag "netbsd-2-0")

I have an SS20-MP running with two CPUs on the 2.0 release branch,
and it does not leak (any more). Has been up for 19+ days now, and
"vmstat -m" shows a steady kernel memory usage of around 10 +-2
MB.

(Ok, so I only have SuperSPARC-II, and not HyperSPARC, but I should
mention that the two CPUs have different major revision SuperCache
Controllers (3.x vs. 4.x), which is officially discouraged when
running Solaris. Seems to work fine with NetBSD.)

The machine is doing IP-NAT for my DSL connection, ipfilter, and
is running a squid proxy for my LAN.
