Re: Unclear hardware choices

Hi Andrew -

I'm currently using the following with an RB2011UiAS-RM on a 
1Gbps/100Mbps link:

Just a quick estimate based on RRD in Zenoss, CPU is sitting at around 
95% idle _most of the time_, after about 15 months of history. I used 
this little box as my home router w/OPNSense but once I moved to gig 
fiber I couldn't pull more than 450mbit w/o any firewall rules and 
upgraded to the RouterOS device. I fluctuate between ~15-25k hosts 
depending on uptime and probably max out around 2-3k flows. Using mysql, 
historical searches can become problematic beyond 2 weeks even with 
SSD+8GB ram.
