However, it has a couple negative factors: it hasn't been updated in over a year and configuration requires a pretty good knowledge of Linux daemons and how they like to be configured (with text files). m0n0wall is an extremely tiny distribution of FreeBSD 4 that initially was designed as a tiny firewall, capable of running in a very small footprint.
