Can we "pause" in loader and ddb>?

Hi,

having a VM sitting (a) in loader prompt or (b) in ddb> makes the fans
go loud on a test-laptop which makes one wonder if we can avoid that.
Note -- I assume also on real HW though that's less likely observered
here.

For example I am sitting in a 4 vCPU bhyve current in ddb> and two
threads are at 100% on the base system.  Do we need to heat up the
planet doing that or are there alternatives?  I haven't looke dta the
code in ages and I assume we need to poll in these situations on the
console and for interactivity often enough?  Can we "pause"?   And why
would two [v]CPUs be at 100% and not just one as I would expect all but
one to be stopped?
