/etc/rc.conf recommendations:

This will stop syslog from opening a socket. This is highly recommended unless you do remote sysloging. If you're unsure, you can safely make this change.

syslogd_flags="-ss"


Cleanup hints if you're using ports. Once in a while look for:

# ls /usr/ports/distfiles/

which is leftover packages you've downloaded to install. You can remove these if the install is complete

# find /usr/ports/ -name work -type d -print 

this is old work directories left around from an install you've done. When you install from ports if you do:

# make install distclean

the distclean will clean this work directory as well as the distfiles.

Also make sure you have a regular patching process.
