Well, I guess all that talk on the BSD Now podcast a few weeks ago was nonsense then? I'll go back listen to them again and pick out the episode along with a timestamp, if you'd like.
Anyhow, I'm not referring to the OpenBSD performance improvements being a reason to port it over. You're right: it isn't an issue for FreeBSD. However, it benefits FreeBSD if the version of pf used is simply OpenBSD pf with SMP support and a few other bits because that means that means less stuff to maintain.
