Networking daemons (and the IP filtering code) only consume CPU time when they're actually doing something, and the amount of CPU time used is roughly proportional to the amount of work they have to do. Try it. If the load average is consistently high, you need a faster CPU. If the hard disk is always busy, you need more RAM. If the box is mostly idle but it still seems too slow, you need a faster Internet connection. -- Glynn Clements <glynn.clements@xxxxxxxxxx> - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-admin" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
