Am trying to verify performance figures for ACE 4710 as EOL replacement for a CSS 11503
Am sure that the ACE 4710 smokes the CSS but have to complete the due diligence

Pulling figures from data sheets, release notes etc.. I have only come up with the following
Is there any further figures available for the ACE 4710 to fill in the blanks in table?

Maximum concurrent connections       ?

Sticky Table                         ?
L4 connections/sec                   ?

CSS 11503 (1x SSL Module)


SSL - Transactions per second       1,400/sec
SSL - RSA operations per second     4,000/sec  
SSL - Bulk encryption (ARC4)        256 Mbps

Hi Sez,

You can find some further information regarding ACE performance limits from the link below. It doesn't contain all the numbers you are looking for, but it provides more information than the data sheet:

I hope this helps
