The CPU is only a limitation for a VPN if the pipe the VPN is running 
over is large/wide. These devices are typically used at the end of a 
DSL/cable connection, with a maximum bandwidth of a few megabits per 
second. I don't think that a 200MHz Geode or ARM will have any trouble 
keeping up with that amount of traffic.
