Actually, it should.
I have over 600000 addresses in an ipfw table with no observable
trouble.
But that rule is triggered only about 10000 times a day (part of a spam

Well actually it does work. So once again, I'm impressed by FreeBSD.
What no longer really works is 'ipfw l' since that takes longer than I
care to wait for it.
Forgot to mention: 4.7-PRERELEASE :(
ugh... no tables
and 45000 lines will be bad.
load an old PC with 6.2
and seet it up as a bridge with 2 interfaces.
and use ipfw table to filter on the bridge
It's a box that I "inherited", and is supposed to go away/upgrade for
