Hi,

pfctl -P -ss -vv command cannot finish and eats %100 of single core cpu
when number of states is over 50.000.
Even killall -9 pfctl doesn't help. process cannot be killed.

I'm using FreeBSD stable/12 that pulled at 2021-06-05.
State policy is configured as floating. I don't know if it matters
switching to if-bound.

Do you have any suggestions to overcome this problem?

Regards,
