[c-nsp] pix 525 cps, real world traffic rates?

[Tom Sands]

   We have a number of 525's, and most of the throughput numbers are 
pretty close (aggregate, cisco math).  We've been getting a total of 
300+Mbps, with 50Mbps ingress, and 250Mbps egress.  We've never seen a 
performance hit at these speeds with ACL's of up to a 100 lines.


   We do straight IPSEC from PIX's, butI don't think they support SSL or 
Web VPNs.
