I'm just curious if there is any information available on how quickly ipfw

makes things faster or slower?
Just curious if there is a big difference between:
ipfw add allow tcp from any to me 22,25,80,110,143,443,10000 in recv fxp0
and
ipfw add allow tcp from any to me 22 in recv fxp0
ipfw add allow tcp from any to me 25 in recv fxp0
ipfw add allow tcp from any to me 80 in recv fxp0
ipfw add allow tcp from any to me 110 in recv fxp0
ipfw add allow tcp from any to me 143 in recv fxp0
ipfw add allow tcp from any to me 443 in recv fxp0
ipfw add allow tcp from any to me 10000 in recv fxp0
Other than the ability to track traffic through each port, of course.
the first is faster.
