Hi,

I'm trying to determine what kind of throughput we can expect from a 2611XM 
currently in production (IOS 12.3(24), 128MB RAM). The router is doing eBGP to 
two peers but only advertises one network and receives default routes only. 
Other than that it's plain vanilla.

Cisco's router performance guide rates this router at 10.24Mbps (is that one 
direction at a time or bidirectional, I wonder) with an avg packet size of 
64bytes. Judging from the # of packets and the # of bytes transferred on the 
unit's WAN interface, I'm calculating average packet size at about 154bytes per 
packet. 

Based on these specs, would it be realistic to expect the router could push 
about 25Mbps aggregate (for example, 12.50Mbps in both directions 
simultaneously)?

Thanks for your insight.

Adam
