Here are my own bench result regarding forwarding speed (paquet-per-second)
with a kernel compiled without-ipsec and with ipsec (ipsec is not enabled
during the tests, just present on the kernel) of FreeBSD 10.0-PRERELEASE:
ministat -s without-ipsec ipsec
x without-ipsec
+ ipsec
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|x + x + +x x x +

x 5 1646075 1764528 1725461 1713080 44560.059
+ 5 1685034 1833206 1724461 1748666.8 62356.218
No difference proven at 95.0% confidence
I didn't see negative impact of enabling ipsec (it's even a little bit
better with it).

Olivier
