What is the profile of the network traffic ? Protocol ? Connections/second ? Packet size ?


Change the policy to 

Block log all
Pass log all keep state 


Perform the test again, check the firewall logs to see what if anything is being dropped. 

500 megabits/second a lot of traffic for an internet connected device. The state table could be filling up for example.
