Here is a great blog on seven Linux/BSD firewalls.
http://linuxcult.blogspot.com/2007/11/seven-different-linuxbsd-firewalls.html
The winner is PFSense which is (ta-da!), based on FreeBSD. I have been using
PFSense for nearly a year now and totally agree with this blog's conclusions.

Hi Tom,
Thanks for your input.
As far as I can remember there were experimental support for kqueue polling
events on apache2 which I remember as nice performance improvement. But
unfortunately I can't find any info regarding kqueue for apache22.
Is this possible for apache22?
