There is no real great LB on FreeBSD :/ There is loadd how seems not very active project (never test). You can do Round Robin with Ipfilter. Else you can try pen / morebalance etc... but depend of your need. They are just proxy. pen work very well. Number of connection is not a big problem with good sysctl value and compilation parameter. The limit will be the hardware bus and interruption. PF+CARP is certainely the best choose (check freebsd-pf list). But it's currently not avaible except with applying patch and seems not yet stable. (UCARP should be soon avaible on FBSD) Anyway, you will not find something like LVS.
