No, issues. Give it a try. BTW, better post this sort of questions to
netfilter-failover. In my testbed [1] I have reached up to 2500 HTTP GET
requests/s. The firewalls are two Dual core AMD Opteron 2200 GHz with
1GBit Ethernets. Note that this is the maximum amount of connections
that I could generate with only one client.
