It's simple to set up (*much* simpler than IPSEC), and it has so far been reliable for me. Since it uses SSL for encryption, it is easy to find hardware encryption acceleration; eg newer Via Epia systems have some crypto hardware built into the CPU which is supported by FreeBSD and delivers superb performance at little cost: those boards are cheap, and they use very little power. For even smaller VPN gateways, A soekris box (http://www.soekris.com) with a vpn acceleration add-on card ought to work fine as well.
