TalmageHolt - you are totally correct in what you are saying. I have 13 of these devices on our corporate network (handling multiple VPN tunnels and external rules).
The performance decreases when you add outbound rules. VPN connections are not totally stable even between the same device on the same MLPS fiber network. The srx5308_v4.3.0-19 firmware works best but the configuration backup issue plays into effect when restoring a configuration file of over 450 kilobytes.
Trust me... I feel your pain. I call netgear support (have you done a factory reset - yes, have you tried reloading the configuration- yes, etc).
