Does adding the following to /boot/loader.conf make any difference?
hw.memtest.tests="0"

I installed FreeBSD 10.3 on brand new machine Supermicro X11SSW-F. It
sits on top of 4x 1TB Samsung SSDs on ZFS RAIDZ2.
The booting is painfully slow from BTX to menu to kernel loading.
Progress indicated by \ | / - characters is changing by speed of 1
character per 2 seconds.
The whole boot process takes about 10 minutes.
I found this blog post solving the same problem
http://smyck.net/2016/06/15/freebsd-slow-zfs-bootloader/
It seems there is some bug in loader in 10.3. If /boot/pmbr,
/boot/gptzfsboot and /boot/zfsloader are replaced by files from
11-CURRENT snapshot (from
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/amd64/11.0-CURRENT/base.txz)
the booting speed is back to normal.
Is it know problem? What was changed in loader between 10.3 and 11?
