I was not really honest: I did compiled the kernel without -g option. Nothing different. The only thing that looks like help was compile without PREEMPTIVE option. I'm sorry very much for FreeBSD that I like many years. I do not think that racing for issuing the new RELEASE (so called in this case) in proper time costs the reliability and robustness we all appreciated all theese years.

Try to recompile the Generic Kernel with the option debug -g commented out and see if that helps with the speed issues you have encountered. Thanks, Russell
