Ben,

Great!

The real time stats really help us keep an eye on the IDD and adjust
things where needed.

On FreeBSD?  This is possible on Solaris systems if one builds the
LDM with large file support.  A queue just under 4 GB is possible under
Linux (using an appropriate build).  I don't believe that it has ever
been possible to build a 4 GB queue under FreeBSD since mmap can not
work on a file larger than 2 GB.

I would recommend a 2 GB queue if you are looking for a large one.
