I have moved my main work pc from i386 FreeBSD to amd64
to get more memory use and ZFS checking.

I'm wondering why loader loads kernel and kernel modules
very slowly.

FreeBSD amd64 on the other work pc (E6600, DP965LT, 2GB mem),
loader works incredible slow, but after I changed BIOS CMOS
config turning AHCI off, it works very well.

So I am doubting AHCI works well, but turing off AHCI feature of
EP45-UD3LR M/B, amd64 loader still remains in very slow working.

Anyone has any ideas?
Thanks
