I'm using an RB433AH so I should be able to handle the added CPU strain. I'll give nstreme a shot thanks

On the other hand, I have an RB433 running 3.30 with 22 clients on a SR9 running nstreme and 9 clients on an SR2, no nstreme, with processor at <15%. Not a lot of traffic this morning, but I don't think this one ever gets really high on the processor. An RB433AH with 15 on SR9 w/nstreme and 18 on SR2 without nstreme also at <15% processor.
