Sophos hardware: Celeron 1037U vs Atom 2550

m@x
Hello everyone. I am building a UTM for my home. I am looking at motherboards with 6 NICs (need for my home lab). The selection is limited to Celeron 1037U, Atom 2550 and Atom D525 processors. Please advice which option will yield better performance. IPS and AV will be on, but only for the WAN interface.

Celeron 1037U:
1.8GHz / 2 Cores / 2 Threads / 2MB Cache

Atom 2550:
1.86Ghz / 2 Cores / 4 Threads / 1MB Cache

Comparison chart:
ARK | Compare IntelRegistered Products


Thanks!

    Hi, 

    Theoretically, QA might be used to speed up the IPS and/or A/V.

    Whether that is going to happen is up to Sophos, Sourcefire (Snort) or alternatives, the A/V engines, and Intel's capabilities.

    HTTPS is already pretty fast on modern CPUs; faster than almost all ssl accelerator chips.
