Hi,

BSDRP 1.70 is online:
- Upgraded to FreeBSD 11-stable: FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE was skipped for
a stable branch because the stable branch includes major performance
improvement.
Some benchmarks here for 11.0 vs 11-stable:

And some performance idea regarding different hardware here:

- netmap-fwd with a patch for syncing kernel FIB: It's experimental
and need more tests.

- Bird upgraded to 1.6.3 with large BGP community support

- OpenVPN upgraded to 2.4.0 with AEAD GCM support.
Some OpenVPN benchmarks here, better performance with AESNI:

But if you need performance, you should use IPSec in place of OpenVPN:

Take care fo the special upgrade instruction for old installation
(installed with version older than 1.60) in the full release notes.
