We have a Dell Poweredge R530 with a PERC 730P Mini RAID Controller (RAID-5 with three disks, UFS file system). Firmware is up to date.
After upgrading from FreeBSD 12.3 to 13.1-p2 the system sometimes seems to hang for a while, load is going up, and top is showing an almost 100% system load.
This can be reproduced for example with repeatedly doing
which deletes 117086 files and directories. It usually takes some more tries to trigger the problem.
gstat does not show a significant disk load
I have been searching thru several forums already but could not really find a clue.
