However, have you ever tried running it as a firewall on a gigabit link with a complex ruleset and about 400 hosts behind it, plus NAT? The benchmarks I saw predicted poor performance on OpenBSD for this type of application. However, when you want a secure firewall, OpenBSD rocks. I like the idea of the transparent bridge with a firewall ruleset. Totally invisible! I do like the fact that it has IPSec AH/ESP VPN functionality built into the kernel.
