Well, if you search the forum for the Lanner FW7535 you should be able
to find the benchmarks. This firewall platform is sold with either a
single or dual core atom N410 or N510 respectively.
The price is hefty though at about 600 euros without taxes. You do get a
6 gigabit port firewall that can do 480Mbps in one direction or 210 in both.
You can add either a CF or a 2.5 inch notebook disk for installing pfSense.
I'm pretty sure that there are way cheaper mini itx boards with dual gig
ports and a atom processor. I saw a mini itx case with power supply for
59 euros. Alternatively a mini itx with a single gig port and a managed
vlan switch like the Procurve 1810G-8 would still be cheaper alltogether
and give you a nice gigabit lan switch in the process.

Thanks in advance to anyone who replies.
