I have a spare QAT card that I could add to my Opensense box, would enabling QAT provide any benefits outside of VPN use cases. For example would it accelerate or improve performance of SSL or TLS in regards to clients browsing websites such as youtube. Just trying to understand if there would be any benefit at all besides accelerating VPN tunnels, the network in question has no VPN or IPSEC tunnels of any kind, it a clean flat network. Web Proxy, IDS, etc. anything that could warrant the extra power draw ?

Thanks.
