I agree in general, but MySQL performance is very exposed as an

And these days ISC can't consciously recommend FreeBSD for use on
high-traffic DNS servers because UDP performance has (frankly) gone
downhill since 5.x.

if UDP performance in 6.x and 7.x has dropped, this could even affect voip
applications/servers such as asterisk when run on FreeBSD. most all use
RTP for media traffic and RTP is nearly always UDP generating up to 50
packets per second per call per direction.

14,000+ packets per second is only about 140 calls.
