I just have to point out that below I made a statement that proved I should of gone to bed earlier instead of doing benchmarks :). The 901 http States and ssh state have nothing to do with each other as there on different pf rules.

I did watch the gateway (B) pf state table and did an ab test with and without pf running, I didn't see any difference in results when having pf running with stateful rules, ab's Time per requests stayed low and transfer rates stayed high. Most of the time the total states were exactly 900 (plus 1 for ssh session) which would make sense considering the 900 keep-alive concurrency level on the ab test.
