laptop and no aio to be found. My configuration is just:
include           GENERIC
ident             GENERIC_BSD4

nooptions         SCHED_ULE               # ULE scheduler
options           SCHED_4BSD              # 4BSD scheduler

I still can't be sure if the problem was triggered by the move to VB 5 or t
FreeBSD-11 (or a combination of both).
