Hi all, I was wondering for some time in a while.. How is the performance difference in general between IPFW2 and PF in stateless rules? I know performance really is hard to tell and depends on your environment. Are they just about the same since stateless rules are going at linear rate of O(N) on both firewalls? I am not trying to start a religious war or anything. Just want to get an idea of what developers think on both packet filters in regards to stateless rules.
