about better network's perfomance using encryption

I have run into this issue before and I have found an alternative that is a
little bit 'out of the box'. There is a company by the name of Kovertsoft
(http://www.kovertsoft.com) that offers a proprietary way of data transfer
over a technology called 'smart pipes'. Their play offers very high speeds
at a very low price. With their method of data transfer, there is an
inherent method of security that occurs... very similar to phasing in the
satellite world. I can see this as a very good alternative if you have allot
of data that needs to be transferred between two points that you control,
but not exactly beneficial to very open standard environments (i.e. internet
based encryption needs).

Subject: about better network's perfomance using encryption

In T1 (1.544 Mb/seg )networks or highers working with packets of 64
bytes there is a big problem with their lost. I've listened about a
protocol L2Z for compressing before encrypting, i would like to know if
somebody knows about another possibility for solving this problem and
where i can get information about this.

I'm interested too in information about better network's perfomance
using encryption.

Thanks!!
