Well, the impact would probably be rather similar, any which way you do it:-).

I do have some ideas on how to combine the multiple transport/header
checks into one instance of PF, but ... have so far lacked both time
and incentive to do something like that. We'll see if I can find some
time to play with it ... probably not before the weekend (when we'll
be revamping our LAN... The times when a highly educated admin gets to
become a cable grunt/monkey... Sigh:-).
