Hi.

I need to implement QoS on a 10G interface (ix(4)) with bandwidth of 4-5 
Gbit/sec. In general I'm using pf on FreeBSD, since I like it more than 
ipfw. But I'm aware that it's kind of ancient and wasn't updated for a 
long time from the upstream (and the upstream still doesn't support 
SMP). So, my question is - is it worth to stick to pf/ALTQ on 10G 
interfaces ? Will pf carry such traffic ?

Thanks.

Eugene.
