I saw a resembling thing here after upgrading to 10-stable yesterday.
I noticed bsnmp running at 30 to 40% cpu continuously, resembling what I found 
here:

After ktrace-ing the process I noticed it was doing sysctl stuff all the time 
and a more close
look showed that it was freaking out on the CD device without a medium.

So I inserted a CD in the device, and bsnmp went back to normal.

"Interesting". So far I didn't notice memory issues.
