Hi jesse.
It's correct , the encryption affects network performance, but the CPU is only 
2% when the ipsec tunnel is active, so I think maybe there is another problem.

What do you think about this ?

  one word: encryption

  whenever you encrypt something it takes the firewalls more time to analyze 
the packets and decrypt them, thus slowing the transfer time down. use the 
lowest level of encryption for fastest network speeds. 

  Look at this link ==> 
http://telephonyonline.com/wireless/mag/wireless_lock_key/

  There is a paragraph in there that answers your question directly: 

  "ENCRYPTION & THROUGHPUTThe downside to adding another level of encryption is 
that it affects network performance. Data encryption can affect data throughput 
depending upon the data-encryption scheme, and your network data speeds can 
suffer. For example, CDPD systems start out with a raw data rate of 19.2kb/s. 
By the time you add in the overhead for TCP or UDP for transport and your own 
data encryption, the data throughput is about 10kb/s -- a loss of about 50%. If 
you add application-level data encryption, the throughput could fall even 
further."

    Hi All,

    We have installet Endian Comunity 2.1. in two diferent places. 
    When I download a file from Internet from place A, I donwload it at 600
    Kbps, and from place B I donwload it at 500 Kbps.
    Both connections are symetric (8Mb upload/download)
    But , when I connet the two places with a net-to-net ipsec tunnel, and I 
try 
    to transfer some files from place A two place B , only transfer at 150 Kbps
    more or less.
    Why ?
    Can someone help me please ?

    Thanks a lot.
