- slow-CPU boxes like everything Cisco with SUPs, since the CPU load _always_ jumps to 100% for short periods of time - BGP needs something calculated ;-) I get interested whenever CPU load _stays_ high
Yeah - Cisco would like to know why as well: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/ac50/ac207/crc_new/university/RFP/rfp07026.ht...
I know ;-)
But: This is not a churn problem, it's a problem of slow CPUs in allegedly big-and-fast boxes. I'd like a NPE-G2 blade for my 76's, as RP. Still, this is getting off-topic.
The MSFC4 in the RSP720 has a 1.2GHz 8548 PPC whereas the NPE-G2 has a 1.67GHz 7448 PPC. I'd guess the performance isn't all that far apart, especially as the MSFC4's processor isn't doing any forwarding. adam.
