#metoo:

HV: VMware ESXi, 6.7.0, 11675023
VM: # freebsd-version -kru                                                                
12.1-RELEASE-p1                                                                       
12.1-RELEASE-p1                                                                       
12.1-RELEASE-p1                                                                       
# uname -a                                                                            
FreeBSD XXX 12.1-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE-p1 GENERIC  amd64
# pkg info open-vm\*
open-vm-tools-nox11-11.0.1_1,2

doesn't hang but becomes *very* unresponsive over the network.  pings are 
shot.  Console is fine though.  100% idle on top across 4 cores.  And:

# openssl speed -evp aes-256-cbc
...
1024 bytes block:  542595.18k (1593774 in 3 seconds)

I never noticed that before.  I normally turn off snapshotting the RAM 
because it's so much faster and I'm happy with crash consistent rollbacks.

Rebooting fixes the awful network behaviour.  I didn't check the disk 
subsystem.
