I have been at Networks 2000 all week.  They have done nothing but tout CEF
everywhere - turn it on everywhere.

My personal experience is that it greatly improved the performance on a
7206.  We turned it on in every router in this class.  I have not tried it
on smaller routers - though I dont see why it would hurt.  I would make sure
that the CPU and memory on your routers is currently running at a decent
level before turning something new on.

If you are using access lists, it will really help the performance.  Only
the 1st packet in a flow goes through process switching - instead of each
one.

CEF is supported on all platforms from version 12, perhaps netflow as well?
Should I enable CEF on my 2600s? What do you think?
