With those specs I would expect the PCI bus to be a bottleneck
unless it's PCI-X, maybe even then (if you use barnyard/*nix).
There are tricks you can play to get around that through fancy

of snort each listening for diff types of stuff...) but chances
are you won't need to; your boxes are much beefier than mine. ;-)
