            Bug ID: 211466
           Summary: swapoff should not be called on reboot
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.3-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: mi at ALDAN.algebra.com

When an orderly reboot is requested, the system attempts to remove the existing
swap-areas by calling swapoff.

This seems unnecessary, may take a long time, and may even fail depending on
the RAM-amount and usage.

This is, probably, due to the swap "service" being asked to "stop". Either it
should not be asked to stop during reboot, or it should not attempt a swapoff
in such a situation...
