Hi Dan,

Thanks for your help.
I will update my ESXi 5.1 to Update 3.

I sent a mail to illumos developer list.
When there is a mistake, correction, please.

Thanks

I don't know the doorfs subsystem that well, but given I've not seen this anywhere else, I'm wondering if something odd is going on inside VMware's memory management (you did say this is running inside VMware)?
