Running CURRENT (FreeBSD 12.0-ALPHA4 #19 r338446: Mon Sep  3 21:07:45

When connecting to the as router acting APU from inside my SoHo network
from any machine or via serial console, there is no obvious problem so
far detectable. Using top(1), which is my indicator for the problem, is
sending normal output. The router has igb0 as tun0 and is spanning the
network via vlans via igb1. Connecting to a host inside my network and
havinf heavy net I/O doesn't reveal any problems so far. Direct access
to the APU from outside is prohobited.

When loggin into a host inside my private net from my department and
then from there toward the router (APU) as a wheel-grouped user also
doesn't reveal problems using top - but I have users restricted to see
only there own ID and also there groups are limited via some
bsd_see_others... sysctls. It gets funny when sudo su -'ing to root on
the APU and then using top. Immediately the net traffic freezes forever!
