I'm also wondering wether 1000 Hz on a Soekris net4801 (Geode 266 MHz) won't be overkill. I'm planning to migrate some of them from 5.4 to 6.0, and doubting wether to change the new default to its more conservative previous setting of 100 Hz. > This may be a religious issue and everyone should use what he or she > seems fitting.
