I'm not running with these: > options MAXDSIZE=268435456 > options DIAGNOSTIC > options DEBUG > options LOCKDEBUG I'm running NetBSD 10.0_BETA from 1-Jan-2023 with a GENERIC kernel with DJMEMCMAX and MAC68K_MEMSIZE=264 on a Quadra 650 with 264 megs of memory. I haven't seen anything that looks like any sort of intermittent issues, and the system has built lots of packages: https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/m68k/10.0_2022Q4/All/ This includes zstd, but I haven't tried cmake and friends yet. What's the date of tree from which your NetBSD was built? John
