I did not see a significant improvement going from ppp(8)+9 and ipfw to ppp(8)
and pf+nat. Since ppp(8) already incurs the kernel/userland cost, having it
handle NAT on top does not increase latency.
I've recently switched to mpd (and pf), and things "feel" snappier. I haven't
benchmarked it though, and my router box is rather oversized for the task
anyway (C2D). Friends using a Soekris swear that it helps a lot though.
The switchover is fairly painless, and the excellent mpd manual helps a lot.
Using one of the many examples, I managed to set up the mpd.conf rather
quickly; the only real adaptation was in the up and down scripts I was using
(my ISP kicks the connection every 24 hours, and I get a new IP, so I like to
bounce a couple of things when the connection comes up again.)
