(In reply to Nick Evans from comment #16)

I recently got an EPYC Rome box to replace my old Nehalem, and while it's
screaming fast at just about anything I throw at it, system load frequently
hovers in the 30s (32/64 cores across 2 CPUs). There isn't any excessive IO
going on, and load on the old box was <<12 pretty much all the time. The old
box did not do GELI at all, the new one does - but again, there is no
significant I/O to speak of.

I did set threads to 2, but I saw no effect - I suppose a reboot is needed (and
this should go in loader.conf, correct?)
