Other variables are used to override kernel tunable parameters.
The following tunables are available:
.Bl -tag -width Va
.It Va hw.physmem
Limit the amount of phyiscal memory the system will use.
By default the size is in bytes, but the k, K, m, M, g and G suffixes
are also accepted and indicate kilobytes, megabytes and gigabytes
respectively.
An invalid suffix will result in the variable being ignored by the
kernel.
.It Va kern.maxusers
Set the size of a number of statically allocated system tables; see
.Xr tuning 7
