ASA or Cisco router

Cisco ASA 5510 and Cisco 2921
Currently we have a Cisco 2921 ISR that we connect directly to the internet we have a 16 block of IPs routed to internal servers and use anyconnect to VPN into the office and have a office to office vpn with a remote office. We use ACL's to manage all the traffic. This is then connected to a 6509 and we have 4 vLans.
The throughput on the 2921 seems really slow for our remote users.

Im looking into a ASA 5510 to replace the 2921. Is this a good Idea or do I run them in line? Im looking for better performance on the VPN side. The 2921 is slow.
Or do I look at something else all together?

Did you think about of splitting to 2 Internet lines?
- 1 for VPN: using ASA
- 1 for Internet: using Cisco

No my second is way slower then the other. Really just backup incase of failure.
The 5510 is an EOL and EOS support product. So I'd definitely pick something else.
