I thought it was just something on HEAD so never really looked at it. But later on when i start using the jails again and testing a test wordpress site i noticed that with a simple load test my haproxy jail within one minute looses it's network connection.

From the host i can also not ping the haproxy jail IP adres. If i start a tcpdump on the epaira interface from the haproxy jail i do see the packets arrive but not in the jail. >>>> >>>> I used ZFS to send all the jails to a 13-STABLE machine and copied over the jail.conf file as well as the pf.conf file and i saw the same behavior. >>>> >>>> Then i tried to use 13.0-RELEASE-p7 and on that machine i do not see this happening. There i can stress test the machine for 10 minutes without a problem but on 14-HEAD and 13-STABLE within a minute the jail's network connection fails and only a restart of the jail brings it back online to exhibit the same behavior if i start a simple load test which it should handle nicely. >>>> >>>> One of the jail hosts is running under VMWARE and the other is running under Ubuntu with KVM.
