### Description

Over the past 3 or so months I am seeing increasing freezes in my Ubuntu Jammu JellyFish VMs.

```
➜ cat lima.yaml
# ===================================================================== #
# BASIC CONFIGURATION
# ===================================================================== #

# Default values in this YAML file are specified by `null` instead of Lima's "builtin default" values,
# so they can be overridden by the $LIMA_HOME/_config/default.yaml mechanism documented at the end of this file.

# Arch: "default", "x86_64", "aarch64".
# 🟢 Builtin default: "default" (corresponds to the host architecture)
arch: null
# OpenStack-compatible disk image.
# 🟢 Builtin default: null (must be specified)
# 🔵 This file: Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish images
images:
# Try to use release-yyyyMMdd image if available. Note that release-yyyyMMdd will be removed after several months.

I'm install `lima` via `brew` and keeping it updated.

Opening a new shell in instance just stalls.

Is there anything I can do to reduce or collect logging or ascertain the root cause.

I typically have to kill the underlying `qemu` process to recover from and restart the VM.
