Yes, that is very likely to be the source of my problems. However, the =
root
cause is still not clear to me. Why would I get an interrupt storm when
geom_stripe tastes the discs when everything else works like a charm?

I have hw.intr_storm_threshold=3D5000 set in /boot/loader.conf so the =
storm is
probably pretty "big". I added that setting back in June when, after
installing a second RocketRAID 454 card, I started getting interrupt =
storms
at boot during device probing. It didn't really help, but ACPI changes =
at
the beginning of August seems to finally have removed those problems.

Hmm, anything in the last 4 days that could affect this (kernel/userland =
was
from 4 days ago)? I don't recall seeing any commits that would be =
relevant.
