fail2ban and ssh-guard

[hacktheworld]

I installed fail2ban on my operating system, does it make sense to install ssh-guard too?
(I use Pure OS 10 Byzantium)

They both block brute-force attacks. I've never felt inclined to use both. I suspect that doing so would result in high CPU usage when you're under a heavy attack - and anything public-facing will get attacked.
