FreeBSD 12.0 or try -CURRENT. Only kernel matters, you can postpone upgrading base/userland and ports/packages as long as the kernel config contains COMPAT_FREEBSD10 and/or COMPAT_FREEBSD11. Background: An innocuous change in Firefox 63 made tabs hang on *every* page, so a Mozilla engineer that maintaines IPC code got curious and tracked it down to a kernel bug. As Firefox IPC is based on old Chromium IPC I made a guess that Chromium may suffer from a similar issue but whether it's related to the notorious hanging tabs is unknown. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1475970#c7 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1476130
