That's pretty high.
You may experience performance degradation because of excessive swapping.

With all those features enabled, you look like you're a UTM320 candidate -- whoever helped you decide what size appliance to get didn't research your application thoroughly enough. It's like asking a Miata to tow an Airplane.

Ha ha, nice, short and expensive answer. I hope i will not get such answer from support, because then they need to change datasheet of this product, for example, UTM220 recomended users: 25-300, fullguard supported only on 25 users.

hi guys,
seen this thread with all the ASG "gurus" and this thread makes me nervous.
i´m using ASG for several years, till now using 2x220 with 1 Gig Memory in Cluster mode with having all services enabled, but Intrusion Prev, pop3 proxy, site2site and wireless
Have about 300 Users with mail an web.
The system works quite good with V7, even RAM-Usage and Swap are increasing slowly. Now the RAM ist on 60-70%, Swap at 20% (uptime 180d)
Upgrade to V8 haven´t be done now, since i´ve read/heard much about performance issues then.
Since the EOL of V7 i MUST upgrade or switch to UTM9 boxes. My dealer mentioned to trade-in the boxes 1:1, so i would get 2x220 UTM9 for a nice price.
But reading this thread and others, it looks like that this won´t be a good deal, cause the performance won´t be good enough for our kind of use.
So, should i better switch to 320? This means having a 2x320 Cluster.
TIA
Thomas

what's the reason for you clustering? is it load balancing or failover? Depending on your usage 2x asg might not be needed...
It´s load balancing. And for testing. This often was very helpful for new relases.
Splitting up the cluster and upgrade of one box only, preventing the other from update.
Sometimes this saves my live *g*
