Thanks. I actually hoped that other people may have already performed
the necessary testing - and that, based on the responses to my email,
seems to some extent to have been the case. Here's /proc/cpuinfo on
the OpenVPN server:
-------------------------------------
[bepstein@dellnikon ~]$ cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 6
model : 8
model name : Pentium III (Coppermine)
stepping : 10
cpu MHz : 996.841
cache size : 256 KB
fdiv_bug : no
hlt_bug : no
f00f_bug : no
coma_bug : no
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid level : 2
wp : yes
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 mtrr pge mca cmov pat

bogomips : 1993.68
