i dont think so. the man page indicates that kmem_alloc() is a
limited resource and should be used judiciously. if it could
swap/page i dont think they would say that.

-memcache

hard to say. afs itself it only limited by the chunksize and number
of slots. kmem_alloc() will likely have some limitation that you
run into first (like a static pool size based on a certain percentage
of physical memory).
