yea, so turn off pf(4), or more specifically, state creation, especially
when you are doing syn-scans (default when done as root).

which archs did it break for you?

on a side note, i recently found that state creation on amd64 and
sparc64 seem to top out around 140, but on i386, i can create states up
to the configured max. however, none of this is highly scientific. i
still need to isolate more to figure it out.
