How much snort can handle is alone based on RAM, Processor, harddrive space, .. physical limitations. I have had a 486 on 3 x 24 mgbs circuits, over 4 Class B's worth of address space and it handled it fine.

The problem is that these networks are big. Really big. One of them is 30GBits (3 lambdas over dwdm). The smaller ones are OC48, 802.11ad bonded GigE, and so forth. My question is how much (in whatever terms you wish to use) can snort be reasonably expected to handle? If anyone can point me to resources related to snort/bro/whatever in high performance networks I'd sure appreciate it.
