Dropping packets why?

["Elijah Savage" <esavage () digitalrage org>]

I have snort setup on my openbsd firewall with 3 interfaces
2 intel interface
1 3com interface
All are pci on 100mbit switches
K62 300 128 meg of mem

I figured this machine should be strong enough to simply handle a cable
connection but I am dropping packets

Snort analyzed 19376 out of 20072 packets, dropping 696(3.468%) packets

I am running barnyard logging to a mysql database and using acid but all
that is setup on a totally different machine.

Any ideas where I can start looking to try and correct this, basically
running with the default config except for changing the home_net. I want
to see if I can figure this out then I will start tunning.
