Zenarmor performance expectation

[jaykumar2005]

I am running OPNsense on Lenovo P330 Intel i5-8500 CPU @ 3.00GHz, with Zenarmor Free tier, with basic default policy with few rules.

My upstream bandwidth is around 1Gbps, get around 900+mbps on interface/VLAN excluded on Zenarmor

The bandwidth I get on Zenarmor monitored VLAN doesn't exceed 650mbps at all

Is this the expected penalty of running a single core single thread zenarmor?

Did someone did a benchmark of Zenarmor performance on different CPU? What is your bandwidth perfomance with zenarmor enabled?

Hi,

Can you share the interface type and are you using Zenarmor with Emulated Netmap driver or Native Netmap driver?

I am using Routed Mode (L3 Mode, Reporting + Blocking) with Emulated Netmap driver
