Anyone having experience ipfire compared to PF/opnsense?

I'm using opnsense but it's based on BSD and the hardware support for my PCengine APU2C4 NICs isn't so great, I've read Linux based Firewalls might have better support (=performance=throughput). Only getting around 60MBs with plain firewalling, no IPS etc.

Opnsense seems to be much more feature complete though and all my searches for switching between them find only posts of people going from ipfire to opnsense.

I found ipfire too limiting. Never delved into the pf/opnsense group. Ended up rolling my own.

@leetnewb @tofu ive never tried ipfire, but i love opnsense. its been a perfect match for routing needs for our servers
