I think a sweet spot for a router would have 60 - 80 gigabits of 
throughput.  3x 10Giges and 0 - 10x GigEs.  1x 10GigE goes "East", 
another goes "West", and the last goes up to a cheap provider.  The 
GigEs go to peering fabrics, private peers, alternate upstreams, etc.

Oh, and being able to saturate them all.
