... curiously, top running on the guest reveals (the point at which the
bhyve wedges):
88722 root 1 52 0 109M 105M pfault 3 0:03 42.37%
llvm-tblgen
88687 root 1 52 0 374M 347M pfault 2 0:04 38.24%
llvm-tblgen
88668 root 1 52 0 236M 225M pfault 0 0:04 35.11%
llvm-tblgen
88743 root 1 52 0 55460K 26392K pfault 3 0:00 10.23% cc
... where top on the host just shows 100% bhyve 100% busy on 4 threads.
