Howdy list, I've seen a few gzip hardware acceleration PCI cards for HTTP servers and such on the web. Mostly they target Linux though. Does anyone make something like this for FreeBSD? Can it be used to accelerate everything that uses zlib? I ask because it would be useful to compress disk-destined backups on an old "CPU-challenged" machine. And besides, it would make a REALLY cool toy. :) Thanks! -- Jesse Guardiani, Systems Administrator WingNET Internet Services, P.O.
