I am running 10-STABLE r307832 and have 12-CURRENT r308386 in a bhyve to 
run poudriere - compiling system and ports is my only use of a bhyve 
guest. Host is my desktop with 8GB running xfce.

Since updating the host a couple of weeks ago I find running bhyve 
unstable where it wasn't before updating (from about 2 months earlier)

The first two runs of a current guest in bhyve after updating to r307832 
locked up the host which was left unattended for a few hours while the 
guest was compiling.

I use sysutils/bhyve-rc to start bhyve guests.
