[reSIProcate] Awful performance on Leopard

	Also, I just figured out how to kill the socketfilterfw deamon  
(without it spontaneously reviving itself), and performance is back to  
normal:

[bcampen at dn3-233:~/checkouts/resiprocatehead/resip/stack/test]$ ./ 
testStack --num-runs=100000 --bind=127.0.0.1
Performing 100000 runs.
100000 registrations peformed in 35384 ms, a rate of 2826.14  
transactions per second.]
Note: this test runs both sides (client and server)

	I did verify that traffic was flowing too. If you wish to try it  
yourself (and keep in mind, this completely disables your firewall),  
you probably need to do the following:


sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.alf firewallunload - 
int 1
sudo killall socketfilterfw

	To put things back the way they were, you probably need to do the  
following:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.alf firewallunload - 
int 0

and reboot (not exactly sure how else to get the daemon to start back  
up).

Best regards,
Byron Campen
