With the major vendors now offering VM-based RR's, I'd 
discourage using routers as RR's just for pure long-term 
scale.

Suffice it to say that the Peer Group functionality in IOS 
and IOS XE has largely been replaced by Update Groups. We 
use peer and session templates, but really, as with Peer 
Groups in 2015, it's just to keep things neat and tidy.

Junos, of course, has its way forever which still works 
nicely.
