Throughput not great

I read an article by someone who played with that and using it inline might not be so great since throughput was about 125mbit/s, so big hit if you're expecting gigabit link. Far short from "wirespeed" as the company advertises. Perhaps it could tap in to traffic rather than be "in-line" and the chap writing the article missed that.
