Hello everybody!
After today's source update I have a problem when doing make buildworld:

Hi
Since you are suggesting 2 x 8GB USB for a root partition, what is
your experience with read/write speed and lifetime expectation of
modern USB sticks under FreeBSD and why 2 of them, GEOM mirror?

I am pretty sure that adding more disks wouldn't solve anything in
this case, only either using a faster CPU or a faster crypto system.
When you are capable of 70 MB/s reads on a single unecrypted disk, but
only 24 MB/s reads off the same disk while encrypted, your disk speed
isn't the problem.

I'm using a GJournal on top of GRAID3 on top of GPart.
What happens:
If I go to my gjournal mount point e put:
dd if=/dev/zero of=file bs=1k count=10
The system freeze. No more response in the corrent ssh session, the
system don't respond to new ssh connection, and the console got
freezed too.
