I found that hardware crypto acceleration was not as much help as expected when using openvpn because the hardware is accessed by the kernel and openvpn runs in userspace. Consequently there's a lot of context switching and transferring data between kernel and userspace in order to use the hardware crypto. I'd be interested in hearing how this plays out today in the Linux arena. Karl <[email protected]> Free Software: "You don't pay back, you pay forward." -- Robert A.
