A collegue smartbits tested a 1GHz pc, with a full feed and 250k simoultaneons flows it managed around 250kpps. This also with freebsd and device polling. It sounds to me like a software based machine can be plenty fast with good code under the hood.Sorry, in today's world of high-end routers 250kpps doesn't qualify as "plenty fast". Can your box do linerate Gigabit Ethernet with minimum size packets, on several ports simultaneously?
I didn't say that a 250kpps box was a high-end box. One reliable Mpps is not high-end either, but it can carry quite a lot of Mbps. What is C or M price for a reliable full feed Mpps ? "My" high-end boxes never manage to impress me with their pps capability before I'm disapointed in their reliability. /Tony -- Tony Sarendal - dualcyclone () gmail com IP/Unix -= The scorpion replied, "I couldn't help it, it's my nature" =-
