I just wanted to know whether it would be a good idea to run BBB as a router w/ firewall capability. I intend to use BBB with 1 WAN port and 2 LAN ports(with USB to ethernet dongles) to support a total of 150 users in the network. I am skeptical about the load the BBB can handle with the above said numbers. Any suggestions?

Wild guess... I would say the USB dongles would be where you hit the wall. The BBB has more than enough CPU power, RAM might become a factor with that many users with a lot of rules.

LEAF has an ARM port for Rpi. I don't recall if it's in main or not. I would think the same hurdles would apply here for that number of users.

Seems to me for the money a Sokeris (sp?) board or something similar might be more appropriate.

My 2 cents worth anyway.
