Let me know, what else I can do to help fix this bug -- I'm going to
reboot the machine tonight... Should I switch to SCHED_ULE as a
work-around?

SCHED_BSD4 is suboptimal for 4 CPUs, and it is replaced with SCHED_ULE
on 7 STABLE.
Thanks, Paul for the explanation. I've heard of some problems still lingering in the ULE and figured, I'll stay with the BSD-scheduler for a while. I guess, it is time to switch. However, what I'm seeing on my system today is evidence of the scheduler having a bug, rather than merely being suboptimal. If the old scheduler is still maintained and supposed to work (however sub-optimally) in 4-CPU configurations, I'd expect either inquiries for more debug-information or assurances, that the bug is known and worked on. In the July 26th sys/conf/NOTES file the SCHED_BSD4 is still on the default option....
Yours,
