I'm currently scanning on a 4-core vm with 4gm ram, in Virtualbox on a laptop, within OSSIM. Traffic average during a scan is about 4kB/s (kiloBYTES). Network pipe is not the bottleneck. It can provide 20mb/s (megaBITS) easily. If I get a 12-core/24-thread server with SSD and 32G ram, will the scans go faster, all settings being the same? And, will it hammer on the targets too hard and disrupt them?
thanks Peter (please no asshat questions about bytes and bits. I have indicated clearly)
