leaning towards just throwing up 2 better boxes with 2GB of ram and

question.
My first advise would be to upgrade to 4.0 from your 3.5 version. There
is so much improvements in performance, etc that you may not have to
change any boxes and then read this from Daniel:

First step when you have problem is always to go with the latest version
and running 3.5 as your firewall, I guess putting it to 4.0 with the
various bug fixes is not a bad idea.
But, that's just me.
Best,
