Re: CPU for firewall machine?

[Mircea Luca]

I used to have a P75 doing masq for my home network with a fairly strict
set of rules.2 ISA NIC cards,64 MB RAM.Altough CPU usage was less then
2% one could feel the firewall,it was a delay in loading the
webpages.Upgrading to a
P166 and 1PCI NIC solved the problem-same HDD and I kept one of my ISA
NIC's.
I had/have only 3 computers behind the firewall.
