[Soekris] Which distro gives best performance?

m0n0wall is good work. The only issue I've had with it up to this
point is that it used a unique, stripped-down version of FreeBSD
rather than PicoBSD.

I don't know if the latest version uses NanoBSD, but if it does
(and if they will put work into NanoBSD so that it cross-build
safely across processors), it ought to be great -- worth the 
code bloat, er, I mean, extra overhead of the FreeBSD 6.x kernel.

They mention, in their beta notes, that they had to do kernel
patches to allow simultaneous NAT and traffic shaping. I wonder
why that would be.
