Should be supported by the igb(4) driver: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=igb&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+8.1-RELEASE&arch=default&format=html

Myricom 10G-PCIE2-8C2-2S+E is the solution(https://www.myricom.com/products/network-adapters/10g-pcie2-8c2-2s.html).
It has driver called mxge that is having altq option compatible with freebsd 8.1 .
the page on pfsense portal does not mention mxge (http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/ALTQ_drivers)
but freebsd 8.1 official page does (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=altq&apropos=0&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+8.1-RELEASE+and+Ports&arch=default&format=html).
You're running it out of RAM and filling up the RAM disk also.
Squid on NanoBSD cannot do logging. There isn't enough room to log to the RAM disk (/var or /tmp) and the CF is read only most of the time and thus not suitable for logging.
If you need to have a full-featured squid platform, you'll need to be running a full install on a hard drive or SSD.
Pretty sure even the first 10base2 NIC I had could do better than 3sec ping! ;)
(though I don't think it was running an IP stack so probably couldn't ping at all)

Since having the WAN connected it boots quicker and the webGUI itself is much more responsive which per another thread i knew would happen, but its still a nice change
Yes the speedtest.net client uses 2 or 4 connections depending on the speed. It works great as you can see. :)
There are other interesting things you can do such as failover and policy based routing.

Yes, here it is: http://www.osnet.eu/en/content/firewall-fwa-3030#content
But I just noticed that I made a mistake. The box doesn't have 7 ports but 6. I mixed that up with the ibm servers I used for a customer, they all had 7. I've edited my first post.
However there are also pci-e expansion slots available so one could upgrade it with a different case then. Or add any other cards.
I know that the X520 works in 2.1, not sure about 2.0.2.
Anyway, I'd probably go with a single E5-2643 in each box. That will give you the best chance of hitting 8Gbit/s, though I'm not sure it will actually do it.
Thanks everyone for your help. Although 2.1-BETA did fix a couple issues I was having, it did not fix the issue with the serial ports. The pfsense menus seem to require you have a NMEA GPS (refclock 20) so if you want to use a different refclock you'll have to hack on /etc/inc/system.inc to generate the right stanzas in /var/etc/ntpd.conf. I stopped the ntpd service in the menus then jumped to the shell and ran ntpd by hand /usr/local/etc/ntpd -D3 -c /etc/ntpd.conf still no joy with the serial port. I have symlinked cuau0 to both /dev/oncore.serial.0 and /dev/oncore.pps.0 and also have my /etc/ntp.oncore.0 config in place which enables TRAIM and mode 1 (zero position mode). No Joy. /var/log/ntp/clockstats shows driver timeout on @@Cj (get config) command sent to the device same as before.

It looks like this is an issue with the motherboard/BIOS settings or somesuch at any rate I'm happy with 2.1-BETA and an busy building a new refclock based on a Raspberry Pi with the Adafruit 66 channel gps which will replace my old Motorola as my primary NTP server. I've got the Raspberry Pi ready to go with linux kernel pps and latest ntpd build just waiting on the Adafruit gps board.
Finaly after thne change hardware the firewall is not crashed, its working with Xeon 5570 dual cpu and 64GB memory. This day we have received an attack again with 1 GB traffics everything is working fine… For now i should be get snort packages with session limits per ip base...Could you pls share us config types?
