one thing you can try is disabling mpbios and, if you don't need usb,
uhci in the kernel. I've only seen this make a diffence on i386 and it
may be specific to some versions of qemu.
# config -o /bsd -e /bsd
ukc> disable mpbios

then reboot.
anyway, this is just a guess. you might get some better advice if you
provide more info, like the output of dmesg.

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
