Re: [Openvpn-users] Scalability?

[Mario Gonzalez <twsmapg@xxxxxxxxx>]

The application is more like telnet than gigabyte file transfers.
Something like 5k/hour/client. There are no serious peaks except for
restart scenarios, where all the clients are re-connecting.

What initially concerns us are the requirements for handling all the
certificates.
