So that sounds a little bit...unbeleavable. As I understood, you don' t have
to buy CPMP-MPU-1-NG     Multi-CPU Support but without it only one CPU is used
by fw-1.
Let's discuss the following scenario:
Once I bought a E220 with 2x Ultrasparc II. As firewall software CP 4.1 was
installed. With 4.1 you could use multi processors without any additional

no, 4.1 does not support multi-CPU.

use an eval-license and check how much faster your fw is with
multi-CPU-support enabeled and then find your decision.
