Andy,
Checkpoint used to have a page on their web site that showed their
performance measurement statistics for a Solaris based firewall vs an NT
based one. The Unix system was orders of magnitude greater in capacity
than the NT system. I don't know if this page is still there, it might be.
Also with a UNIX system you can more precisely control what packages are
installed and thus decrease potential vulnerabilities.
Regards,
Brad
