Which is exactly what I said.
If your CPU is fast enough, you most likely will not see any service degration on a small home internet feed.
If you try to run a large network through a software firewall, you
will see service degradation.
If you need to see "facts" to support that, you don't know as much about networking as you think.

I couldn't be arsed looking for more "facts" to convince you.
