Hey folks,
I've been using OPNsense since late last year. It's been nice to use, but when I've wanted to try more complex things that require downloading ports and compiling them, the low-power of the CPU is very noticeable. Is there any way to set up a VM or to target OPNsense on a Windows machine? The idea being that I compile what I need using my laptop's much faster CPU and then just copy over the binaries over for installation and avoid a 5+ hour compile. I guess I could set up something using FreeBSD, but given that OPNsense has its own packages, I'd like to try to find a way to directly target OPNsense.
Cheers!
