This is what I beleave sprint is doing. They are using the new Cisco 12000
GSR with external router servers. It is a smart way of patching the
problem. If you need more CPU or memory you can just add a bigger box and
more RAM. 

The GSRs are to move bits fast.  They are not to act as
route servers.

Sprint recently announced that they are deploying 622Mbps
POS cross-country links, and the GSRs are the only things
you can put on the ends of such beasts that are available
today. 


The GRF has an 622M card for it.
