I have a Performa 600 (68030 @ 25Mhz) running in MacOS mode right now, 
doing the routing + NAT for my 5 computer cable modem network, as well 
as running very active pop3+smtp+name+http daemons.

If my computer can do this well in MacOS, a Centris 650 in NetBSD should 
definately be able to outperform it.
