hello!

What was your CPU utilization prior to the upgrade?

Like always before the upgrade - 95% :)

Currently on npe-g1 it's 80% on peak times with traffic numbers I
mentioned before and 4500 online modems, 3000 cpe's

CPU utilization on a software based router is not linear, said in a
different way, even when CPU hits 100% it can still forward
significantly faster.
