    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.

    Thanks,
    -J
