No doubt.
On the other hand, it was a little bit misleading of Luigi to suggest netmap to a
user who merely asked about tuning FreeBSD network (routing/firewall) performance :-)
netmap can no doubt be useful, but perhaps let's not overhype it before it
actually proves itself on practical tasks. Or has it already? I might have
missed that.
