@datenimperator: as you had an APU2 and now have this J3160, can you compare the two? Speed, stability, heat, etc.Thanks, Tom
As I said, installation was easy. I replaced a few tunables that explicitly targeted the AMD platform. No dropouts, no high CPU.
Can you please specify which tunables you mean. Would like to check mine, maybe I can improve my system a little bit.

In OPNsense you don't have to edit files at OS level in order to set tuneables. Just add them in GUI. This is true even for the boot/loader.conf ones, as all entries are added there as well.
