Please correct me if I'm reading this incorrectly. But it
sounds like 
you're saying the firewalls worked fine until you
implemented pfsync, is 
this correct?

If so try backing out of that to isolate that change and
confirm this. 
I've seen pfsync packets either by lost of "slow"
in synchronizing with 
the other firewall and as a result state mismatching
occurring on the 
secondary firewall (if both are active - i.e. arp balance).
If you're 
using that try disabling it and see if there is an
improvement.

Also, have you made any modifications to sysctl.conf and
loader.conf? If 
so please post them here.

Regards,
