Entercept HIDS Question

[sam () neuroflux com]

Hello..  We are currently in the process of selecting a HIDS based
product, and according to the Entercept sales person, they claim that the
product has a feature that works very much like Tripwire.

My question here, is how much overhead does it add to a server, to watch
the filesystem in real time?  And, if we already have Tripwire, would
their File Integrity checking process be enough to replace Tripwire?

And, if anyone is currently using the Entercept HIDS product, I'm
wondering how easily it can be managed (not only from the HIDS piece, but
from the file integrity standpoint -- excluding files, creating policies,
etc.)

Thanks!
-Sam
