Re: [FW-1] dual processor and fw-1



FW-1 is a serial program so Dual CPU is not going to help in a big way you
assume.  However since FW-1 run many processes like fwm, cpmad, snmp daemon
etc. So overall your underlying OS can do some load balancing among CPU  by
distributing processes between CPUs, but at any given point of time one
process will run on 1 CPU only.
As far I know Checkpoint has no immediate plans to introduce parallel
version in near future according to one of Checkpoint guys.
