Julian,

I think I'll wait for someone more qualified to evaluate these problems.

I can't code, don't have commit access, and don't even know how to see
what was added or removed to -CURRENT when or where etc.

The problem has been laid on the table of the FreeBSD gods by many
people now. FreeBSD would be dead in the water if it relied on the likes
of me to do assessments and debugging.

Once I identified what was taking too long and what was waiting on what
- I would have no clue what to do or try from there, but I'm sure it would
require some coding experience.
