Comparing USG modells e.g. USG60 and USG110, the firewall throughput is >1000MBit on both.
But the UTM and AV throughput is 90 on USG60 and 450 on USG110.
What does that mean to us, having a 100MBit DSL today, perhaps 250MBit tomorrow?
Typical traffic are large downloads from the Internet.
thx.

    Hi @gga

    Due to UTM and AV will detect all of the packets one by one, so if UTM or Anti-Virus is enabled the performance will became lower.
