I've had similar experiences as well as times where xhyve made it so my laptop could not come out of sleep.

xhyve is wonderful but still needs some work and it seems like the main dev isn't interested in continuing work on it at this point[1]. Hopefully Docker's usage will spur more work on xhyve.

We've had to fork xhyve very heavily for Docker to embed it, and are making many changes in a very rapid loop as we improve d4mac. We're still debating whether to contribute back into xhyve or just make it a separate open-source project with its own pace and design tradeoffs. Either way we are impatient to open-source it.
I'd hope some of your improvements make it back to xhyve
