(In reply to Max Laier from comment #2)
While rmlocks are relatively lightweight there is still a non-zero overhead.
For the purposes of a test the lock can simply be removed, and without it I see
~2% more packets per second in pf than with it.
I've been thinking about replacing it with a CK_LIST and epoch based cleanup,
but I stopped working on it when I spotted that ipfw relies on the lock. It
should be possible to move that into ipfw, but I'm not sure the 2% is worth
that work.
