This depends a lot on the hardware, the network, and lots
of other things.
Also, I don't think the FreeBSD kernel is optimized for
high ICMP throughput. There's no reason to do that,
because it's not really a real-world benchmark. You
should better make some more real-world benchmarks such
as transferring files. And make sure that you use
comparable hardware (including identical NICs, because
these can make a _huge_ difference).
Also make sure that you have a switched connection in full-
duplex mode. Or even better, use a direct connection with
a "crossed" cable.
You might also want to play with polling or other tuning
parameters; please have a look at the tuning(7) manual page
and the Handbook. Also make sure that you don't have any
packet filters installed (IPFW, IPF, PF).
Best regards
Oliver
