I have a HP lpr, running Linux, FW-1 4.1 Our connection table almost
always exceeds 10,000 connection. It runs somewhere around 1% cpu
utilization. It's connected to four T-1s.
I've run 14 T-1's into a Nokia 330 without any performance problems.

IP440 will do well.

VRRP is only on the Nokia platform. I recommend Rainwall on Sun or Linux.
