am I right that OpenBSD does NOT use device polling like FreeBSD or
Linux (called "NAPI") do ?
any router (even at 10G rate) will perfectly work without polling ?
specially, I have a router (100-200Mb rate now) on "Broadcom BCM5721"
which is bge and Intel PRO/1000 QP (82571EB) which is em.

yes.

my understanding is that polling is to limit/cap the amount of
OpenBSD has its own mechanism to mitigate high interrupt load that is already
enabled in the bge and em drivers.
Neither bge nor em are 10G cards.
