I like the idea of offloading SSL from my Secure Gateway servers so that the encryption can be done in ASIC but can that be done with the Secure Gateway? Would I then re-encrypt between the SG and my PS servers with a lighter encryption?
Unfortunately I own a CSS 11501 so that is what I will be using.

a CSS does load balancing, Thats really about it. Its actually not a very good product. There are better devices such as f5 BIGIP. This is a load balancer, will speed up connections, and help a ton with disconnected sessions. Citrix has a similar product with their wanscaler, But its no where near as good. On the downside, f5 is kinda expensive.
