FAST_IPSEC allows for hardware crypto offloading (see man 4 crypto).
Even without it, the author claims its faster than KAME. However, its
important to note FAST_IPSEC cannot work with INET6 in the kernel.
Also, you want to use it mostly with RELENG_6 if possible. Also, dont
use racoon, better to use ipsec-tools. Its also in the ports.
As for tutorials, google around and read through various posts. There
is lots of good info out there. Perhaps if you describe what you want
to do, people can make specific suggestions.
