He looked at several accelerators and wasn't too impressed with what you actually get for your money.

I'm thinking about getting an SSL Accelerator. Intel has one that
intercepts packets in-between your web server(s) and net connection. Then
it does the encryption/decryption required and passes the traffic along to
the web server(s).
It's called the NetStructure(TM) 7110 e-Commerce Accelerator and the
NetStructure(TM) 7180 e-Commerce Director. I've included an HTML for ref.
Has anyone had any experience with these or other accelerators?
Intel says that 90% of cpu util can be SSL (sounds fishy to me).
I would just be interested in any comments you might have. Thanks,
