Are people still using sk, gem, or hme (!) in pps performance critical

doesn't make sense to do so, and hasn't in a long time...
Performance critical? Well, given the pathetic speeds available in
the USA for less than a small fortune, sk works well and was cheap.
Yes, this is an ancient release and an ancient/snail slow CPU...
it works and the system uses about 15W with only 1 tiny fan.
At max load (routing 20 mbit and forwarding 200 mbit or so) the
CPU is 25% loaded.

[Why an ancient release?

sysmerge didn't handle any of the crucial update cases (pf changes especially)
at all well. It didn't differentiate release-to-release changes from user
changes. Maybe it does now with diff3 - that's what I use.
(old release /etc <-> current system /etc <-> new release /etc).
This box will probably go to 5.5 or 5.4 current - not significantly less
work than a single release update.]
