Yes, the congestion counter is what I meant. It's increasing at around 
7/s when the traffic we send it now is at peak time, which is about 40% 
of our total traffic that we will be sending to that box. The 
net.inet.ip.ifq.drops counter is increasing at a length of 100/s right 
now, but I'm not at that peak time either. Having those counters at that 
level seemed pretty high to me, but is it the case? Or out of 35-60K 
packets per seconds it's a number that I should not worry about?

As for the ipintrq length, I've tried different values between 1000-3000 
and values between those didn't seem to affect the rate of the PF 
congestion counter.

Thanks
