pcap and gig speeds.

[Jason]

We are planning on updating a number of old machines, being used as
IDS sensors, and in the past, there has been a known issue regarding
gig speeds and pcap with regards to snort.

Has this issue been resolved, I searched archives (the search
web interface appears to have some issues, and was only returning 4
results on a generic search of pcap), nothing usefull.

Before I spend a significant amount of money on new hardware, I want
to make sure we have the ability to support it, honestly, I would hate
to have to move to linux.  I have no tried the ports version of pcap
yet since I don't have the hardware.
