Confirm on (almost) all counts.
I moved the printer to an rl driver port and the problem disappeared.
top reports 350MB free memory.
The same problem exists with the wifi AP connected to an hme driver
port. Turning the AP off then on kills pfsense.
I'll update the report.

The number of spawned php processes that kill the system however look
like a pfsense problem to me and the php code should prevent itself from
meltdown. Or does freebsd really require php for handling interface
hotplug events? As in, a basic minimal freebsd system does not work
without php installed?

Thanks for the hint Bryan.
