I am currently using FreeBSD 8.0. I have been, for a long time, been having problems with lockups of FreeBSD 8.0 when using USB hard disks. Sometimes certain applications lock up for several minutes, when they use the disk, file operations are very slow, and sometimes the entire operating system can lock up for several minutes. This can be a pretty painful thing and makes the system seem very unstable. I am using UFS filesystems on the disks. It seems to happen on multiple disks that i use.

I was hopeful changes to the FreeBSD USB drivers might have improved things but they are as bad as ever.

Help is appreciated.
