I wasn't that brave.  I did it on a 2600 series running OSPF,  BGP, NAT
&
ACL'S in a lab environment.  Result:  CRASH CITY!

  Hi

  If you are just routing you should be fine. However if you are doing
  NAT,
  ACL, policy based routing or anything else that is CPU consuming you
  are
  likely to have some problems. Keep in mind that a Cisco router will
  start
  dropping packets at about 70% CPU and be totally brain dead at about
  90%
  CPU.
