I really don't think that the tests mentioned are under "Realistic" and
identical conditions. So, in my opinion which maybe a fool one, i do not
think that you should take seriously into consideration the "Test" results
performed by CheckPoint. ;-)

&THgr;&eacgr;&mgr;&agr;: Re: [FW1] Nokia CPU speed?
I just like to know what I'm buying. Its good for comparing to the
price
for doing my own server-based firewwall instead. Nokia hardware is
basically a PC, as far as I can tell. I can get rack-mount PCs much
cheaper
than Nokias and run Linux which performs even better than Nokia,
according
to CheckPoints performance brief:
