I also have been wishing for a long time that Checkpoint would offer
SSL termination on gateways. Hope this comes through. I have also had
to fall back on Microsoft ISA for SSL termination.

I always thought that the lack of SSL termination is one of the biggest

holes in FW-1 there could be. I stuck in a Microsoft ISA server behind
FW-1 
and one of the reasons was that it does SSL termination. I think
there's a 
VPN Accelerator card now that supports SSL, which would also help
Visitor 
Mode performance.
