I've heard from people who have tested ALIX hardware to max out at
about 10 Mbps IPsec throughput with 3DES. DES and 3DES are
significantly slower than any other encryption algorithm we support.
With AES, Blowfish or CAST128 you can probably get around 15 Mb
through an ALIX. If you require 3DES you'll likely need something with
1 GHz CPU to push that much and have adequate power to spare for other
traffic and services.
I have been able to get about 25Mbps across IPsec tunnels using Blowfish
with a 1.6GHz CPU on one end and a 2.0GHz CPU on the other end.
