I agree with everything Tim wrote above, and I'll add that the biggest factor that influenced me in my move to OpenBSD for my firewall was that it was the only free unix I found that could do bidirectional filtering in bridged mode. As in, when you're in a bridged configuration you can filter in and out on an interface. Neither Linux nor FreeBSD could do this. It's certainly an edge case, but if you need that feature it's invaluable.
I'm using ALTQ since FreeBSD 4.6 and it's also exist ALTQ+PF that's near the same as OpenBSD version.
And i confirm that's shapping with ALTQ work great ! Even with 32 Kbps.
You can easely shape around 1000 rules and have a full Fast Ethernet port on a dual PIII (FreeBSD ALTQ port without PF)
ALTQ have many shape algo, maybe the only one with such diversity.
You have some CD distribution with ALTQ enable.
