I've got no comments on the jail-related stuff given that my knowledge of jails is almost non-existent. However I wish you had run your diff past freebsd-rc@ since if you had I (or someone else) could have let you know that the attached patch is a much cleaner way of implementing the bit about conditionalizing "parallel" execution (which, to the extent I understand the problem I agree with your solution of only doing it at when starting, FWIW).

In general we try to avoid having any code in rc.d scripts run unconditionally. In this case it's harmless (although every cpu cycle counts) but in other cases it can cause problems, which is why as a general rule it's safer to avoid it altogether.


hth,
