The limit in your setup is the 2Mbps connection. Your director must be able
to NAT at 2Mbps. I think almost any pentium ever made (60Mhz) could handle
that amount of NAT.
from the HOWTO:
The rewriting is slow (60usec/packet)
and limits the throughput of VS-NAT (for 536byte packets, this is
72Mbit/sec or about 100BaseT).
your connection to the outside world is about 50times slower.
