Gigabit performance

[Tomás Heredia <tomas.heredia () activesec biz>]

Hi all!

    I know this is a many-times asked question, but I can´t find any
conclusive information about this scenario..

I need to  use snort in inline mode, and have to know which hardware
would I need to run:

Snort 2.8.x in inline mode
Full (or almost) rule set, including upt to date VRT rules
No DB (just text alerts)
VMWare ESXi based (single VM on this ESXi)
Dual gigabit ethernet, plus one form management..
And support near Gigabit traffic WITHOUT any packet loss.

Does anybody have experience in a setup like this?

Thanks!
