I think you'll find that this kind of thing can be handled by pf
without pf breaking a sweat.

And you can ask 100 people what they think you'll find and get 100
different answers.  What you really need to do is configure this setup
for a controlled test.  Only then will you have a good idea what to
expect when you go into production.
