Encryption is a CPU intensive process. Check your CPU
utilization to see if your server processor is a=20
bottleneck. If so, an obvious solution would be to=20
upgrade the processor. On another platform, a hardware=20
crypto board may be a solution but I'm not sure if one=20
is available for Novell.
