Works quite well and very stable on the bigger CCR models (memory). We use
2x CCR1036-8G-2S+.
Eating one of the cpus for the bgp process. 1100AHx2 cpu is a bit slow.
There is a newer 1100AHx4
which is twice as fast as 1100AHx2.
Mikrotik BGP Routers are holy cows. There are no updates/config changes at
normal times.

I hear there are some versions better than others in
terms of BGP performance, but Mikrotik BGP really belongs
on x86 boxes until v7 is out.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] rb1100ahx2 bgp load
Take a look at /tool profile (on in Winbox) to see where
the CPU load is going. It is
probably going to routing for BGP but you can verify it
here.
Is anything else running on the router? OSPF, VPN,
PPPoE, etc?
Where BGP really matters is when you lose one of your
peers and it goes through
and updates the tables. On lower powered boxes, this
will peg the CPU and can
cause OSPF flaps, dropped packets and other issues.

We turned up BGP on one of our routers today, 2 peers,
full routes, this is just one upstream, we will be
turning up bgp with another provider shortly elsewhere on
the network, I assume those tables will make their way to
this router.
load averaged 4-12% prior to turning up BGP now its
running 60-90, even occasionally pegged
is this a matter of tuning BGP and ROS packages, or is
this just too much for the router? this is only at
150mbps, as we increase capacity I feel we have already
scaled out of this router if its not a misconfiguration
of something on my end
