Personally I would go with a machine using two Gig Ethernets. Plug one
into a switch to break out the 100 mb connetions to the real servers.
I'm not sure what speed processor you'll need to keep up with a gigabit of
NAT traffic. I would think it would be more memory bandwidth limited than
actual CPU power.
