Then you should read this article as well:
InternetWeek 3/26/2001 "Firewalls Go Gigabit" (p37)
http://www.internetweek.com/reviews01/rev032601.htm
for a review of the Cisco PIX 535. InternetWeek was
able to pump 820 megabits/second of traffic thru a
PIX 535 (though a more normal real-life scenario would
probably be around 500 megabits/second). The PIX 535
($75K) is being marketed as a large enterprise size
firewall as well as to ISPs. A 1 Gigzhertz Pentium,
4 gigabit Ethernet interfaces (plus it can take a
number of 10/100 ports).
