I'll fill in some more details for Chuck.. We started out on a RB1000 with a single bgp peer. All worked fine for a long time.
We then added a second bgp peer and switched to full tables tables and it started leaking memory and would lock after a few weeks to a couple months of running. After the third bgp peer with full tables it would lockup after several days to a couple weeks. We upgraded the memory on the RB1000 thinking that more might help.. It didn't.. We tried several RB1000's and eventually upgraded to an Axiomtek NA820 x86 system a few months ago. Sunday, after 62 days uptime the x86 system locked for the first time. We've tried ROS 3.1x to 4.11 all with the same results. I've sent a number of supouts to Mikrotik at various days of uptime before it locked. I've hooked a console cable to the RB1000 after it locked and was not able to get any response from it. I need to leave a monitor hooked to the x86 system to see if it is kernel panicing or just freezing. I have another x86 system that I think I'm going to load freebsd on it and just run Quagga. I don't want to spend the money on a cisco to handle 3+ full bgp feeds and 300+mbit of traffic. I've considered splitting up the bgp peers with each on their own router and running ibgp between them, but I'm still facing the same problem of having 2 full bgp tables on each router. The only way I've been able to minimize the time between lockups is to filter everything but default routes from my upstreams.
