Yes, but it would take the resources of someone less humble in
networking capabilities than myself to do it.  I'd like to see what
network perforamnce is when, say 1000 routes are in your routing
table.  How long does it take for 1000 users to connect and get
different 1M files (or one of 100 1M files), etc.  These sorts of load
testing is generally beyond the means of many people, but I think it
is an area where FreeBSD would shine.
