@onthegrind - PF is a single thread process and those multi cores do nothing for sheer (pf) routing. Although, they may be handy for other processes (e.g. suricata is a multicore process). I’m doubtful on your assessment regarding the i3’s throughput is accurate (based on negates documentation: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/hardware/size.html).
