HI Lennert,

I've got quite a few ESTABLISHED,RELATED rules.  These rules are for
separate services and are quite specific.  These rules wouldn't overlap each
other through ESTABLISHED,RELATED.  I've used RELATED to allow associated
ICMP messages.   
Considering the amount of traffic passing through, the counts that are
present represent only a very small part of the total. 
The only rules to gain any counts are in the input and output chains and
they only increase when associated with connections made directly to the
firewall. No forward rules increase at all, practically all of the rules are
applied here in the FORWARD chain as you would expect for a bridge. The
br_passthrough.o was compiled into the kernel as part of the bridge code, is
there a reason for compiling it as a module?

Do you have an ESTABLISHED,RELATED rule, perhaps?  Do you have the
br_passthrough.o module loaded at all?
