I have just replaced my simple broadband-router with an Efw. Things are great, but I experience that on high (max) utilization of incoming bandwidth (e.g. downloading with utorrent) , the Efw seemingly cannot keep up.

Some specs:
-I subscribe to a 20mbits internet-connection.
-The Efw runs on a P4, 2.3 gHz, 1 MB ram-system

When I download at max speeds, I can see that the CPU utilization is between 95-100%. Ram seems ok at appr. 30%, load average appr. 1.3 at this time. The trouble is that I only get 20mbits the first few seconds, then it falls to about half for the rest of the download.

Would a more powerful CPU fix this? Or is there any logging I could check/switch off or other tricks to free system resources? I have intrusion prevention on. Does this consume much resources?
