Run the "crash" command. This lets you look at a bunch of system information,
run the "strstat" command under crash. This will tell you the number of times
each size message block has been allocated and has failed an allocation request.
Then edit /etc/conf/cf.d/stune (or run the /etc/conf/cf.d/configure comand)
to up the number of steams message blocks for the size(s) that crash
said failed.

Hope this helps.
