I'm running FreeBSD-CURRENT on that machine, and aside from the once per month that I update it to the latest -CURRENT, I have no problems. You'd probably want to use one of the -RELEASE's or -STABLE if you want it to "just work." On my router I'm running postfix (actually writing the mail on that machine right now), dhcpd, DNS, and using ipfilter/ipnat for NAT and firewall capabilities, and using dummynet for some basic QoS type stuff. Works great with no performance problems.
