General Consensus on OSX Firewall

whats general consensus on osx firewall. it's not enabled default , never knew option existed. problematic @ all, or prone slowdowns. behind home router

 

its idea turn on firewall, doesn't cause issues or slowness.
however, if behind home router software firewall wouldn't matter much, unless have machine sitting in dmz.
