Are you able to disclose the speed and/or cost? I know people working on cheaper HSM's. They might find the numbers useful as an assessment of how practical their own are.

I don't have any first-hand knowledge, sorry. (Not affiliated with ISRG.)

Based on some public posts, I believe Let's Encrypt is using Gemalto HSMs, though I'm not sure which model or how many of them.
