It yielded 100Mbps+ SCP's with zero system CPU usage, very very handy. I've used a few older SSL accelerators and they were good for about 1Gbps or so. IMHO AES-NI makes these things obsolete, and with that going into the new Intel Atom cores, I think thats likely going to drop a lot of the competition out.
- rdl 13y agoAh, yes, the Silvermont series should be amazing. It looks like it might have virtualization extensions, too. I can't tell when it's supposed to come out, though. Should rock for NASes too. Right now only certain i3/i5 NAS seem to do AES acceleration, so the cheapest are around $2k bare from QNAP or $999 from iXSystems.
