You can't do NFS mounts from within a jail, which is why I have to do it
this way.

Nothing else unusual. Very few services running. The box sits mostly
idle and the traffic is light -- watching some TV shows (the jail runs
Plex Media Server). I haven't been able to locate a reason for the mbufs
to go up, but often a wake up in the morning after it has been doing
nothing all night and see it made a large jump in mbufs used. When I'm
running an 11-CURRENT kernel these problems do not exist.
