Thomas, I would like this to load balance all traffic going out of the local machine (which is gateway for the home LAN), including locally-generated packets.  I was under the impression that PREROUTING happens before everything else and affects all packets, both locally-generated ones and forwarded ones.  My conntrack tables show that locally-generated packets are getting the fwmark.   Could you explain why PREROUTING isn't the right place for the marking rules?
