I might have the history wrong on this one but it sounds like FreeBSD forked OpenBSD's PF code at one point to add SMP support. OpenBSD's continued PF updates have not been merged into FreeBSD due to the incompatibilities introduced by their SMP changes. I believe single thread performance has also increased quite a bit since the fork happened. I don't require 10gig support currently but I have no doubt that SMP support will eventually be required if OpenBSD wants to remain usable as a router in the future. |
