Mark, Was your experience with or without the co-processors?
Thank You,
Dave O'Brien

We had the co-processors but I didn't think the 1.1 level of the product
used them. The latest 1.2 level might but I don't know from my own
experience.

Any Crypto Assist processors present? Makes a big difference!

Yes. We used DFDSS both with the software encryption on and off. The
performance with the encryption turned on was unacceptable and we ended
our testing shortly after we tried the product. By unacceptable I mean
that the resource consumption was a multiple of the unencrypted dumps.
