Reasonable size for state table in pf.conf



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

What is a reasonable value for a high powered machine with 2gig's of ram to have for a state table?

I currently have it set to 100,000 but I think I want it increased to about 300,000.

Perhaps I should be tweaking the timeout value also?

Below you'll find the copy of `pfctl -s i`

Thanks,
david
