I have been googling around the Internet for information about IPSEC and FAST_IPSEC for freebsd on the Internet and wondered what gives best performance when I came across this http://people.freebsd.org/~pjd/netperf/ It has some nice graphs / figures on performance of IPSEC and FAST_IPSEC via gigabit ethernet devices and as long as I am seeing this correctly it appears the regular IP_SEC is a fair bit faster in some areas then FAST_IPSEC. Does any one know if this information correct? Anyone done there own benchmarks? Thanks
