I have observed that when there is some heavy diskactivity (unpacking of a 
large tarball or downloading multiple (10+) files) my Xsession/KDE chokes 
sometimes to a temporary freeze/halt.

Guess it's some kind of IRQ-conflict. Now, is there some way to solve this? I 
know that linux had this irqtune-tool, where I could change the IRQ's and 
priority of the various channels. Is something similar possible with FreeBSD?
