Anyone else gone down the rabbit hole of #Intel #QAT support on #FreeBSD?

The performance boost is crazy, Server The Home has a great write up about it on the Xeon D CPU:
servethehome.com/welcome-to-th

It accelerates #OpenSSL
github.com/intel/QAT_Engine/tr

It also accelerates gzip with a QATzip module.

For #Nginx there is a great guide:
intel.com/content/www/us/en/de

It looks like a lot of work to configure and test, but hopefully later this summer I can give it a go on a system . CPU that supports QAT.
