Hi! , I'am new in bhyve world , my experiencies so far is with windows7 and windows10 (for desktop use,and some software)
in windows 7 all was fine, and in windows10 bad..the OS boots in 1 of 7 tries
But I learn if use zfs , never use 60Gb in a 120GB SSD disk with 40% free disk space ? , FreeBSD hangs out..very bad
I set the same setup in a separate 2TB disk and it works just fine
Before I use virtualbox-ose-nox11 and works fine, but I read that virtualbox is getting without support

so, what's your experiencies? advices?
 
Has been rock solid for me for quite some time. But I don't have Windows VMs.

I better start making some Linux and Bsd machines!
do you recomend using a vm with 2GB of ram when the OS host is only 8GB?
and a intel core i3-1010

edit:
in a host running firefox with 8-15 tabs
 
I'm a bit spoiled, there's 96 GB DDR3 ECC memory in that machine. Pretty old dual Xeon E5620 (4 core/8 thread) though. And I don't run anything else on the host itself, it only runs VMs.

In your case I'd probably invest in more memory, if possible try to max out the mainboard. Descent desktop usage, ZFS and a few VMS, I'd be looking at 32GB at least, 64GB preferably.
