Obviously doing this in a lab as Roland suggests will provide better figures, 
but can anyone provide experience on throughput to expect using a 38xx or 39xx 
for basic BGP to 2-3 full table peers with the basic edge services (NetFlow, 
ACLs, uRPF) enabled, before its CPU hits the roof?

A 3845 lists at 256Mbps and a 3945 at 502Mbps in the routing performance 
throughput tables, but I am interested in how much of that people are actually 
seeing...

Tom
