Thank you for your answer Yvan, very interresting informations, I understant
what pollng is now..
The load-average came after upgrading the firmware on a F200 from release
7.0.6.2 to 8.0.1.1 . I guess that it is a normal load for that kind of
firewalls... On top of that, the global response time of the box is still
correct.
thanks
