iRule: Header check performance impact

I have an irule which checks for the presence of the header Authorization. How will this perform with 3000+ concurrent connections. Would it make any difference to use a cookie instead or make use of the bigip cookie once the user has been authenticated? The irule checks for the header on every request.

  • APM sharepoint authentication irule is enabled for a customer with up to 50K concurrent users on a bigip 10250 irule.

     

    CPU is less than 50% when concurrent session reach 50K
