I'm running a Nokia IP530, which is a 700 MHz P-III with 1 GB of RAM. I have
10 M/bps of bandwidth and 1,500 users and Floodgate does not come anywhere
close to overtaxing the box. I'd say you're OK. :-)

Hi Ray
Thanks for the feedback. I have a Compaq DL380 dual xeon3, 3.2GHz with
2GB of RAM. I would approximately 300 users - now - but I anticipate
doubling that amount by Fall 2008. Right now, I have a T1, but I am
installing an IMA (dual T1) April 30th. I don't think I am up to fancy
rules (smile).

It's easy to set up and use, especially if you're only doing things like
weighting of rules and limiting of bandwidth based on source,
destination and/or service.
It does chew up a fair amount of memory, though, if the rules start
getting fancy. What kind of hardware do you have, how many users and
what kind of bandwidth?
