I've had an informal, third or fourth hand report of kernel instability when running Tor under load on unidentified versions of FreeBSD. Obviously, this is a bit vague as bug reports go, but I'm interested in seeing if anyone has had real experience with this happening, and might be interested in helping to track it down. If there are kernel crashes, I'm specifically looking for information on what version of FreeBSD is being used, a panic message / trap message, DDB stack trace, etc. I'm assuming it's likely a networking related bug, which I'm happy to work on fixing. If it's not network-related, I can certainly try to track someone down who could work on it. Thanks, Robert N M Watson
