    Hi kky --

     

     

    I've forwarded your question to our WA Product Management team, and they should be posting some numbers for you over the weekend.

  • Here are some rough numbers for 9.4.1 please keep in mind that these figures may vary based on the application:

     

     

    6400 90Mbps

     

    6800 150Mbps

     

    8400 200Mbps

     

    8800 250-300Mbps

     

     

    Standalone WA4500 is good for about 200Mbps.
  • what are the numbers for the two new Chassis? the 1600 and 3600?

     

     

    Thanks,

  • Does it mean for 6400, we can't have more than 90Mbps on a VS using WA?
  • The performance varies based on a number of variables including the version of software, size of the objects, the number of items being proxied versus the number of items being served from cache, and the types of content being requested. The numbers listed above were guidelines they do not indicate the absolute maximum that is acheivable on a plaform it is possible to do more depending on the application. Because of the wide range of factors that go into sizing we have refrained from publishing additional metrics. For information it is best to contact your account manager and SE as they can work with you to understand how WebAccelerator would perform in your environment and provide some guidelines.
