I was just about to ask about the same thing... will OpenBSD lose performance 
as well, given the security flaw conditions?Looks like an issue already for 
Linux, MS Windows and MacOSX.Didn't see any mention about *BSD on the article 
too...

 https://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/01/02/intel_cpu_design_flaw/ "It is
understood the bug is present in modern Intel processors produced in the
past decade. It allows normal user programs – from database applications
to JavaScript in web browsers – to discern to some extent the layout or
contents of protected kernel memory areas." "The fix is to separate the
kernel's memory completely from user processes using what's called Kernel
Page Table Isolation, or KPTI. At one point, Forcefully Unmap Complete
Kernel With Interrupt Trampolines, aka FUCKWIT, was mulled by the Linux
kernel team, giving you an idea of how annoying this has been for the
developers." "AMD processors are not subject"
