It seems that this FreeBSD security patch made the problem(s) happen less often

vnet implements the network separation of jails.
Setting server-processes to 3 helped further to reduce the problem.

FreeBSD-EN-17:07.vnet Errata Notice
The FreeBSD Project
Topic: VNET kernel panic with asynchronous I/O
Category: core
Module: kernel
Announced: 2017-08-10
Credits: Kristof Provost
Affects: FreeBSD 11.0 and later.
Corrected: 2017-07-28 18:09:41 UTC (stable/11, 11.1-STABLE)
2017-08-10 06:59:07 UTC (releng/11.1, 11.1-RELEASE-p1)
2017-08-10 06:59:26 UTC (releng/11.0, 11.0-RELEASE-p12)
For general information regarding FreeBSD Errata Notices and Security
Advisories, including descriptions of the fields above, security
branches, and the following sections, please visit
<URL:https://security.FreeBSD.org/>.
I. Background
POSIX asynchronous I/O permits applications to request asynchronous
completion of I/O requests. VNET permits systems to be configured
with multiple instances of the in-kernel network stack.
II. Problem Description
The implementation of POSIX asynchronous I/O for sockets completes I/O
requests in a pool of dedicated worker threads. The VNET feature requires
threads to explicitly select an active instance of the network stack before
performing network operations. The function used to complete asynchronous
I/O requests was not setting a network stack instance before completing I/O
requests.
III. Impact
Using POSIX asynchronous I/O with sockets in a VNET-enabled kernel will
panic.
IV. Workaround
No workaround is available, but systems that do not enable VNET via a
custom kernel are not affected.
