Sure.

To start with:

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=224218
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=223824
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=223803
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=204700

Etc., but I should not recite our Bugzilla here.

And that hilaroius "75-frames" NFS-related panic requiring tweaks:
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2017-July/087477.html

There are problems other kinds of problems, that is:

- a need to increase kern.cam.boot_delay/kern.cam.scsi_delay (or similar newer tweaks)
to make boot happen;

- firewall_nat_enable="YES" with GENERIC kernel requires manual loading of modules
like alias_ftp.ko or alias_pptp.ko or else NAT would be useless for such transit traffic;

- net.isr.maxthreads may be erronously set to 1 by default affecting performance
and requiring manual tweak;

- zfsloader(8) failing to find any ZFS pool after zfsboot(8) successfully
loaded and started zfsload(8) from zpool (PR pending, need to collect more info)

- net.graph.maxdata/net.graph.maxalloc do not auto-scale resulting in DoS
and lots of other problems within NETGRAPH...

I use FreeBSD in many diverse environments and if I strain my memory, I can remember more.
(NFS itself is full of surprises...)
