Thank you very much for the detail!  Are you running any patches ? I
seem to recall over the years the pfsense folks with patches to pf to
get it to play well.  However, I dont know if thats relevant to
RELENG_10 or not.
I wonder if there is a similar issue with the re driver and altq. I
tried to get it to work on the old zoo and never once was able to shape
a packet :(
In my case, I just want to prevent a process from eating up bandwidth by
accident so dummynet does the trick just fine.  I am going to try this
new box with em nics and see if I can get altq to work.  It would be
nice if its in one config file and I dont have to have multiple firewall
systems.

Just curious, since you had altq working, why did you not want to just
use pf for your firewall rules and natting ?
