[strongSwan] strongswan performance

[victor at designet.com.ua]

Hello everybody.

 

Please help me to understand the strongswan.

 

In production I have Debian with openswan but now I'm going to use
strongswan, maybe with FreeBSD or Debian/Ubuntu for a high usage VPN Server.

 

There will be about 50 Site-to-Site IPsec Tunnels with our customers, using
esp-aes256 esp-sha-hmac for phase 2.

I have 1Gbit/s speed for 50 customers to reach our resources within VPN
tunnels.

 

Maybe you have already had some results of its performance.

 

I'm interested in the following:

How many IPsec VPN tunnels can strongswan handle?

What maximum speed rate can it handle in one tunnel or in all 50 tunnels for
example under Linux/FreeBSD?

 

I have modern Supermicro server with Xeon 3.0GHz and 4 Gig RAM
