What I want to do.

create a netflow collector using OpenBSD by looking at
data fed from a tap

I know which 10G NICs are supported by OpenBSD, what I'd
like to hear is a recommendation on which one of the
following to use.

$ apropos 10G
che, cheg (4) - Chelsio Communications 10Gb Ethernet device
ix (4) - Intel 82598/82599/X540 PCI Express 10Gb Ethernet device
ixgb (4) - Intel PRO/10GbE 10Gb Ethernet device
myx (4) - Myricom Myri-10G PCI Express 10Gb Ethernet device
oce (4) - Emulex OneConnect 10Gb Ethernet device
tht, thtc (4) - Tehuti Networks 10Gb Ethernet device
xge (4) - Neterion Xframe/Xframe II 10Gb Ethernet device

I do have a few Myricom 10G-PCIE2-8B2-2S available already.
However I have funds available to get something else if one
of the other cards performs better.

thanks
