It's just generally very unstable. I could reproduce zfs uma related panics by scp'ing files to this machine. Often I get panics in very early boot as well. I have all the latest HEAD, ports and microcode updates... Either it's just too soon to run FreeBSD on this CPU (which is why I don't recommend it yet) or, I have a bad CPU and/or memory (but given that Windows 10 runs fine this seems unlikely)...
