I agree with Kent,
Unless there has been an official non-biased bake off, its really hard to
say which product can out perform the other.

Subject: RE: juniper and cisco
Roger,
I assume your talking about the 7200 OSR? (announced officially
on Feb. 20th)
I'll admit that I haven't worked with the 7200 OSR, or with any of
Junipers routers for that matter, but what is the basis for your
comment that it "performs and scales better than Junipers routers"?
Is this from personal experience or have you seen a head-to-head
comparison by a trusted 3rd party? Same question goes for the
comment about the performance loss. According to Juniper,
they're architecture is such that they don't experience loss even at
high loads.
Again, I haven't worked with Juniper but I know folks who have and
they haven't told me about the sort of problem you describe.
Are your comments from personal experience or is this "Cisco
says..."?
