CONFIG_VM_FREEBSD_ME_HARDER would be a nice kernel option to have, if
possible.  Then drop it iff the tweaks are proven over time to work
better.
On eproblem is/may be the basic setup. Does FreeBSD have the
notion of things like high memory etc? Different memory pools
for NUMA? Things like that..
That's basically a minor issue. The FreeBSD page replacement
code (or rather the slightly modified one) can just be glued
on top of that.

If the code isn't modular enough to do that it wouldn't be
maintainable anyway.
