It's definitely worth it though.

I've been slowly reading through the process management and virtual
memory chapters during the last 1.5 month, and then started all over
again.

The book is absolutely fabulous!  Watch out for the details though and
keep in mind that you many find it nice to have a FreeBSD source tree
nearby, just for the fun of browsing the source itself too while you
read.
