Take heed to the warning of not testing this on a producton network.  Never
had a problem w/CPU over utilization, BUT my organization has had A LOT of
problems with buffer utilization/overflow on GSR's on 12K's.  We have
experienced small pvc's (5MB or less) dragging down entire OC-3 aggregate
circuits due to buffer problems(not supposed to be possible).  Problem was
not solved even after we upgraded IOS & cards memory to maximum.  We ended
up buying 10K's for each hub to add a distribution layer to our network.
Expensive fix.
