Hi Nir, I restarted the VM now so I can't provide more info until the next time.
I could try strace -p <pid> -f &> strace.log next time it hangs. Could you just point me on how to obtain a dump with gdb? Do I have to do anything special in order to catch the required contents? For the idle vs stuck in a loop, I guess the VM has 4 children qemu threads, and one of them was at 100%.
