You should consider a commercial product rather than relying on
old and somewhat unreliable technology. We've been able to squeeze a 
lot more customers onto our network for a $3500. investment. It paid for
itself in 2 months. We have a dual-core 2.33Ghz system passing 95Mb/s
with 12000 rules in place and it runs at about 10%. The latest version is
truly amazing.
