Ok-- so just looking for some feedback as to what kind of throughput i should be getting.
I have an older HP small form factor pc that has an Intel Core i5 (3rd Gen) 3470 / 3.2 GHz quad core cpu.
More than 8GB of RAM ( I know it only uses 6GB)
256GB SSD.
Intel nic's.
I have Gig internet with Spectrum-- specifically 940 down by 40 up.
With a standard Unifi USG with nothing turned on (no IDS/IPS) i typically get the full 900mb via speedtest.net-- but consistently over 800-- which is similar to speed tests plugged directly into the cable modem.
With this computer and Sophos XG Home (v18) installed-- i'm doing good to get 750 to 800 with pretty much everything turned off. If i add IPS, Web filtering, and Advanced Threat features then it's more ranging in the 550 to 650mb range.
Am i missing something here? My thoughts were that this computer with it's quad cpu would be fairly comparable to an XG 135 appliance-- but i'm just not getting that throughput.
CPU seems to be averaging less than 10% usage and memory doesn't seem to go over around 30%-- so just looking for some feedback.
