Given that the issue seems to be a ZFS issue, I updated to:
# uname -apKU
FreeBSD CA72_16Gp_ZFS 14.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT #21 =
main-n250903-06bd74e1e39c-dirty: Mon Nov 22 04:15:08 PST 2021 =
root@CA72_16Gp_ZFS:/usr/obj/BUILDs/main-CA72-nodbg-clang/usr/main-src/arm6=
4.aarch64/sys/GENERIC-NODBG-CA72 arm64 aarch64 1400042 1400042
(which involved updating some ZFS material).
I ran the sequence of 3 bulk's again: no evidence of
corruptions.
For reference:
The bulks targeting Cortex-A72 and Cortex-A53 each took
somewhat under 10 minutes more than the earlier stable/13
and main [so: 14] builds that otherwise matched (including
the Optane used), for bulks that each took somewhat over
6 hr either way.
