Hey folks, I'd like the advice of anyone who would like to offer some regarding my intended usage of GnuTLS.
I'd like to use it as part of a game server to ensure secure client / server authentication during the handshake. During that process, I understand that it can be resource intensive on the server when there may be hundreds of clients attempting to do the same thing at the same time. I know that there is a such thing as SSL hardware accelerator cards that can have this computation offloaded to them, but seek informed advice from the community for this situation. (1) It's hard to get up to date information these devices. Are they superannuated by something else? (2) Would one even be appropriate for this situation on the server? (3) Can anyone recommend a card compatible with GnuTLS? I believe any that implement /dev/crypto, correct? Assume that the server would be running GNU/Linux with a relatively recent kernel. -- Kip Warner -- Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com
