[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] RE: [FW1] Sizing Recommendations
The basic inspect engine does not take advantage of multiple processors; it is single-threaded. However the encryption module can use additional CPUs if you use the new VPNx driver. Performance boost for VPN on a SMP server using VPNx is substantial, but a VPN accelerator card is probably more cost effective unless you already have a SMP box. Mark L.

You could potentially use multiple processors with the security servers, however I don't think performance would ski-rocket.
