There's something fishy there.....  In Native IOS mode, you *can't* run both
Sups at the same time, so there is no performance hit from running in
software mode......  the primary Sup does all of the work... If it fails,
then the backup takes over and become primary, so again, there shouldn't be
a performance difference....
