choking out the rest of the network traffic.

possibly dumb question but better eliminate the obvious: you did set up
a separate network for the pfsync traffic?

my next thought is that large numbers of errors on a specific interface
tends to point to a hardware problem, either the card itself, the cables
involved or the switch port.

Hi,

I'm using OpenBSD 5.1 on 2 Dell R210 (with em interfaces) and i ran into the same problem two weeks ago. We tried to upgrade all the firmware cards with the Dell utility (F10 in Bios) and for the moment, the problem has gone away (but we're not sure this is not a coincidence).
