Sure. You're right, it could be the "twister" since multiple cards cause a freeze. But it could be anything. I have two suggestions:
1. You might be able to use ddb(4) to determine where your system is hanging. This requires both the sysctl ddb.console set to 1, and the ability to use the ddb debugger.
2. You might consider updating firmware on that NIC. Searching the misc@ archives for the ISL3874A had several threads that discussed firmware. Those threads were from 2006 or earlier, and all of them seemed to talk about firmware newer than yours, which is at 1.4.9. Of course, this might not help since you seem to have the same problem with a ral(4) card. Of course, if *it* has out-of-date firmware too ....
