Hmmm, I need to setup yet another VPM gateway and was interested in knowing if anyone has used the landisk h/w for that purpose? I know hardware floating point support was recently enabled on the architecture.

This test, "openssl speed -elapsed -evp des3", using kernel, "OpenBSD 4.0-current (GENERIC) #2: Sun Dec 31 06:25:19 MST 2006" , gets these results.

The 'numbers' are in 1000s of bytes per second processed.
type            16 bytes        64 bytes        256 bytes       1024 bytes      
8192 bytes
des-ede3-cbc    509.29k         561.45k         572.81k         574.41k         
567.92k

which is "slower" than a stock Soekris.

My landisk system is doing something at the moment so I can't tryout a new kernel/userland to see what improvements, if any, are seen with h/w FP support?

Can someone running a recent snapshot give me the results of "openssl speed -elapsed -evp des3"? I would appreciate it.

thanks
