I had been working on some of this myself, however in a broader sense - covering not just network performance, but any kind of FreeBSD performance tuning. Were you planning on hitting those other areas as well? This could make a big difference on where it should go, or if it should be in a "higher level" section more to itself. Also, I would say that there should be a little more info on "why" things are the way they are - several topics seem to state something, with no reasoning, which in this subject area is very important (I believe).
