you must really have a big pipe!!
i haven't felt any performance hit during my initial tests (and this is in
an ethernet environment). which services suffered during the transition?
could your case be kernel version dependent?

If you're using a 2.4 kernel you're pretty much forced to migrate to
iptables simply because ipchains performance is really bad.
I upgraded a gateway/firewall machine to RH7.1 and the 2.4 kernel. It uses
ipchains by default. I immediately recieved complaints that network
performance (as perceived by users behind the firewall) deteriorated
considerably. Migrating the firewall to iptables fixed the performance
problems.
