Wade,
FYI, you don't have enough memory to handle 1,000,000 states. When last
I checked, each state took somewhere between 1k and 3k memory. Having
your maxstates set to 1,000,000 doesn't hurt, but if you actually open
up more states than your box can handle, you'll be a sad panda.

Upgrade to 1.2-RC2 first and see if that helps. its based on FreeBSD 6.2 as
opposed to 6.1 that the 1.0 release was on.

Subject: [pfSense Support] Sluggish network performance
Good morning,
I am seeing intermittent performance issues, particularly with
samba traffic, between the LAN and DMZ. The machine PF is running AMD
Athlon(tm) processor (950.04-MHz 686-class CPU) with a gig of memory.
The NICS in the box are xl0: 3Com 3c905B-TX, fxp0: Intel 82558
Pro/100, fxp1: <Intel 82557 Pro/100. and dc0: <ADMtek AN985
10/100BaseTX>. PF version is 1.0-RC1. The rulesets on the box are
almost nothing and the only impacting change is I changed the state to
1,000,000 maximum connections (they run allot of nmap scans through
the box). I know this is a very general issue and there may not be
enough good information to diagnose it but has anyone seen
intermittent sluggish samba performance through PF? If so was PF the
culprit and what did you do to remedy it? The only errors I saw that
looked related are below. Thanks.
xl0: tx underrun, increasing tx start threshold to 120 bytes
dc0: TX underrun -- increasing TX threshold
dc0: TX underrun -- increasing TX threshold
