There is work going on to move the OpenBSD pf(1) towards a more SMP friendly entity - this reduces CPU load and should raise throughput.
Are there any plans for FreeBSD "native" packet filter IPFW2 to gain the same? Or, to ask it differently, IS ipfw(1), the freeBSD native packetfilter, already SMP friendly and so better suited for multicore architectures? I'm just cyrious. regards, Oliver
