I have no idea about this one..  However the ipfw messages are related
to the captive portal.

swap_pager_getswapspace(n): failed means you have run out of ram.

All that I can think of is run a top and post the output when it goes nuts.

Hi,

 today I tried to put one PfSense machine into production, but got into some
strange problems.

 After connecting the machine to the network it should work with, during the
boot process the system started to display several tim the message:

 ipfw: rule 3600 does not exist

 And it kept displaying that message, about once per second for almost 2
minutes.

 any idea what could cause this?

 Also, the same machine, after about 10 minutes slowed down to the extreme,
to a point where no connection was possible at all, wheter to the
webconfigurator or to the network through the machine. At the console, I
managed to open a console and then execute a " top" command. Just waiting
for this took about 2 minutes, and when it opened, it displayed loads
varying from 3 to 20, showing only instances of lighttp and php. Despite
that, the processor was showing an idle level of about 70%. The disk led was
also blinking like mad.

 When I managed to order a reboot command, after a few moments the console
started to display the following message:

 swap_pager_getswapspace(n): failed

 This messages was repeated dozens of times per second, with n varying
usually between 2 and 10. The reboot process did not work. After some time I
had to force the shutdown through the power button.

 Any ideas of what could have gone wrong?

 Hardware used:
 Asus PC-DL mainboard
 Intel Xeon 2.4 GHz
 1 GB RAM
 72GB SCSI Disk
 2 ethernet, 1 on-board, 1 in dedicated board
