Thanks for all of your suggestions, though some may have missed the

FWIW, we have six of these doing firewall duty (currently running 5.9) and
they perform flawlessly. We run them in CARPed pairs, and LACP across
redundant switches.

I doubt it would. One limiting factor being the number of packets per second.
At some point the packets-per-second rate will trigger

While everybody is talking about hardware, I noticed that some of you
have flicked your Soekris Net 5501 boards.
We are upgrading from 20Mbps links to 100Mbps links and as a result of
this discussion, I am wondering whether it would be a wise move on or part
to consider replacing them. Rock

I've had good luck with Sun Netra X1's. I use them for pretty much every
firewall / router I need. I prefer the 500mhz model as it seems to be
able to handle a full 100mbit link on both nics simultaneously.
