Kevin,
I have a lot of experience with FireFox and have found a small delay with
TCP/IP services, but especially with telnet and ftp services. I have not
had a chance to see a large (>100) users using a server. I would think it
is not very taxing on the server to handle this function. You may be able
ti put some set parameters to increase the available memory for the
NOVIX NLM.
How many users do you have, or is the performance always poor?
Have you looked at network traffic? Traffic at your provider?
Feel free to email me...

We at our company recently installed Novix Firefox as an IP/IPX gateway.
The company has a leased 56k line. The performance is horrible. I could
dial in at 14.4 and surf the Net faster than doing it through a Firefox
Gateway.
Could it be the overhead from stripping and rebuilding the packets.
Any idea or experiences out there?
Kevin
