current connection question on get_global_stats

At pure layer 4 a 1500 will handle somewhere around 4 million concurrent connections, but in practice most people don't run in pure layer 4 mode so this number is subject to change because not all traffic is created equal...some of the folks in the application deliver space ignore this fact (forunately F5 isn't one of them - look at the performance report here: http://www.f5.com/reports/f5-performance-report.pdf).

 

 

How utilized is this system currently (memory/cpu, etc)?
