Performance Advisory
RSA Email DLP - Enabling RSA Email DLP for outbound traffic on an appliance
that is also running anti-spam and anti-virus scanning on inbound traffic can cause
a performance decrease of less than 10%. Appliances that are only running
outbound messages and are not running anti-spam and anti-virus may experience
a significant performance decline.

DomainKeys - DomainKeys signing outgoing email can cause a decrease in the
message throughput capacity. Using smaller signing keys (512 byte or 768 byte)
can mitigate this.

IronPort Spam Quarantine - Enabling the IronPort Spam Quarantine on-box for
a C-Series or X-Series appliance causes a minimal reduction in system throughput
for nominally loaded appliances. For appliances that are running near or at peak
throughput, the additional load from an active quarantine may cause a throughput
reduction of 10-20%. If your system is at or near capacity, and you desire to use
the IronPort Spam Quarantine, consider migrating to a larger C-Series appliance
or an M-Series appliance.

If you change your anti-spam policy from dropping spam to quarantining it (either
on-box or off-box), then your system load will increase due to the need to scan
additional spam messages for virus and content security. For assistance in
properly sizing your installation please contact your authorized IronPort support
provider.
