        5683 failures (0 no memory)

You can interpret them:

Total   Number of buffers of that size that exist. 

Free    Number of free buffers.

Max     Maximum size that the free list can grow to before we start
        throwing them away.

Hit     Buffer got used.

Miss    Someone requested a buffer and we had to go carve it up out of
        free memory.  If we couldn't because we were at interrupt
        level, it's also an allocation failure.  If we couldn't
        because we were out of memory, then it's also a ``no memory''
        failure.

Trim    There are more free buffers on the free list than there need
        to be and we threw some away.

Create  Number of buffers we created after a miss.
