-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hey Folks, Looking for a simple way to tag bittorent connections based on packet content so that I can shape them with pf/altq... Heard it can be done with a combination of pf and snort .. googled some old references to a now-defunct freshmeat

Even though the card is detected, I'm not seeing any boost in IPsec performance. I'm getting 10Mb/s using 3des. The raw speed (no ipsec) of the link is around 25Mb/s. This measured with netstrain. Here's what dmesg says - hifn0 at pci0 dev 13 function 0 Hifn 7955/7954 rev 0x00: LZS 3DES ARC4
