Yes, I know about pfsync, yes, we use it, no, it doesn't *instantly*
sync sessions for PF.

A bit offtopic on this thread, but isn't pfsync designed to do just that? instantly?

With instantly I really mean:
Communicate every change to the stable table to the other firewall
in order to let the stateful connections survive a firewall failover.
Obviously, some packets will be lost, but TCP connections should
survive, right?

I am not arguing, I ask.
