Netflix is doing in-kernel SSL so they don't have to hit the web server to encrypt the disk blocks for their streaming movies. That doesn't mean it's a (Free)BSD issue, just that Netflix chose a particular architecture and are doing the work to make it go fast. Netmap is in FreeBSD, and available for linux. I think it might be in Dragonfly at this point as well.
