We've generally seen a pretty significant performance increase by using the
luna card. Approx 40% or 50% improvement in peak bandwidth. I believe there
are performance charts at check point that will give you an idea.

Subject: [FW1] VPN Accelerator Card opinions
>
> Hi All (hopefully the mailing list is working today):
>
> I'm looking at purchasing a VPN Accelerator card for my firewall. We are
running 4.1 on an NT 4.0 box (all patched to latest revs).
>
> Does anyone have any comments pro/con on the CheckPoint accelerator card
(performance, problems) or any opinions on competing products? I'm trying
to make the best decision possible.
>
> We have about 50 VPN users, but the firewall handles all incoming/outgoing
traffic to the Internet. I'm trying to take some burden off the CPU and
increase performance, if possible.
>
> Thanks in advance.
