Hi,

I'm using OpenBSD 3.7 with pf and bridge enabled for a transparent
proxy, and I'm having some packet loss somewhere in this bridge, since
netstat -ni doesn't give me any ierrors i'm beginning to check PF setup,
this machine has about 30k packets/s, my question is: how can i see if
pf is ok with this load on this machine? my top always give me 100% cpu
idle, and the load is about 0.2 all the time, even lower, this numbers
give me the impression that the OS is handling ok this load, am i correct?
Almost all my pf rules have quick enabled, but i'm not using state in
some rules, can this slow down the pf? and what's the maximum state limit?

>From pfctl -si:

Counters

If need ask me and i will provide the dmesg output from this machine.

Thanks in advance,
Vinicius
