hi there Just wondering if there is a known incoming speed limit at which Bro will perform to its best? I refer to the traffic speed (100Mbps ?) thanks ---

This isn't really a well-formed question: too much depends on the specifics of your traffic mix, the sorts of analysis you want to perform, and your hardware platform. We use Bro operationally at LBL and NERSC to monitor 10 Gbps links using commodity PCs. However, monitoring UC Berkeley's traffic (slower links, technically, but much busier anyway) requires the user of a clusterized Bro. That said, if 100 Mbps is the speed you wish to monitor, that should certainly be doable.     Vern ---
