I have moved swap to its own partition using this commands:

... it turned out, that having swap as a plane file in /usr was
not a good decission, we deleted (after making DUMPS) the 'ssdusrfs'
again, created swap and re-created 'ssdusrfs'; this must be done while
/dev/gpt/ssdusrfs is not mounted!

# gpart show -l ada0
=>       40  488397088  ada0  GPT  (233G)
         40       1024     1  ssdboot  (512K)
       1064        984        - free -  (492K)
       2048    4194304     2  ssdrootfs  (2.0G)
    4196352    4194304     3  ssdvarfs  (2.0G)
    8390656  480006144     4  ssdusrfs  (229G)
  488396800        328        - free -  (164K)

be carefully with the correct number of the index, in our case 4; check
the output of 'gpart show -l ada0' before doing this:

# gpart delete -i 4 ada0

create the swap partition:

# gpart add -t freebsd-swap -l ssdswap -a 1m -s 8g ada0

and the rest is our 'ssdusrfs' again:

# gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -l ssdusrfs -a 1m ada0
# newfs -U -t /dev/gpt/ssdusrfs

the new /etc/fstab should look like this:

# Device                Mountpoint      FStype  Options         Dump    Pass#
/dev/gpt/ssdswap        none            swap    sw              0       0
/dev/gpt/ssdrootfs      /               ufs     rw      1       1
/dev/gpt/ssdvarfs       /var            ufs     rw      2       2
tmpfs                   /tmp            tmpfs   rw,mode=01777   0       0
/dev/gpt/ssdusrfs       /usr            ufs     rw      2       2


we need gzip and some shared libs (which normaly are in /usr); I copied
them on some other system into the externals disk where the DUMP is:

# cp -p /usr/bin/gzip /usr/lib/liblzma.so.5 /usr/lib/libbz2.so.4 /mnt

now mount and restore the DUMP:

# mount tmpfs
# mount /usr
# cd /usr
# mount -o ro /dev/da0s2a /mnt

# LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/mnt export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
# gzip -dc /mnt/e6330/dumpse6330-20160726/usr.dmp.gz | restore -x -f -
# umount /mnt
# reboot
