Few questions:
1) why are you not using fastforwarding?
2) search_steps/searches ratio is not that good, are you using 'buckets'
   keyword in your pipe configuration?
3) you have net.inet.ip.fw.one_pass = 0, is it intended?

1) and 3): the box does traffic accounting and shaping, so I need one_pass=0 to do both ngtee and pipes. 2) Hm, I'm not using "buckets", but rather net.inet.ip.dummynet.hash_size. It's at default, 64. I've tried setting net.inet.ip.dummynet.hash_size=65536 in sysctl.conf but somehow it was still 64 after reboot, so I left it at 64. Should I make it 128? 256? Does it matter that much? The load is at approx. 70-120 consumers per pipe, so I thought 64 bucket size was enough. Here's how I've been monitoring the pipe load interactively:

#!/usr/local/bin/bash

while :; do
        (
buff="$(ipfw pipe show | grep -E '^[[:digit:]]+:' | sort -n -k8,8 -r)" online="$(mysql -Bs -u... -p... dbname -e"select count(*) from online")"
        clear
        echo "$buff"
echo "$buff" | awk '{sum+=$8} END {printf "QLoad: %d/%d\n", sum, '"$online"'}'
        netstat -m | fgrep -w 'mbuf clusters in use'
        ) | dd 2>/dev/null
        if [ -t 0 ]; then
                read -s -n 1 -t 15
        else
                sleep 15
        fi
done
