Mr Mephisto, how so ?
A firewall does not generate more bandwidth on a connection, its all on the host CPU processing the data, the rate that a modern PC can process is data is an order of magnitude greater than almost any network pipe can handle.
The bottleneck will always be the network in current systems, unless the CPU is maxed out, and if you know anythign about bottlenecks, it doesn't matter if a process down the pipe take slightly longer than it did (and we are talking nanoseconds) so long as it can still pull data from the bottleneck faster than it can push, it will always be starved for data..
I'd like to see some facts on your reasoning
