Effectiveness of Astaro v5 against DDoS

From everyones experience, how effective is v5 against DDoS attacks? We are considering using it on our DDoS targeted network as a primary line of defense but need to know the real scoop before dropping $7k+ on such a system.

Thanks!

I have come under some light DDOS traffic, ~20-50 packets per second.
No problems whatsoever, other then slightly increased proc usage everything was normal.

20 - 50? I'm looking more at thousands - tens of thousands. I plan to use a Dual Xeon 2.4 or better. Someone please tell me i'll get better performance than 20 - 50 for $6995. This is a DDoS intensive commericial network i'm looking at putting this on, not a home connection.

Regards.

I'm not sure if this has information about performance under DDOS, but if you go to

http://download.astaro.com/Astaro_Security_Linux/marketing/v5.0/

There are seceral PDF's which have performance figures for astaro on several boxes including a dual CPU dell.

Version 5 does have a syn rate limiter which should increase performance over v4.
