   The equipment available today is designed foolishly --
  route update processing and actual packet processing should NEVER be done by
  the same CPU -- but it is -- and as such you're dead when this happens.

Lest anyone believe this, it's bullshit.

Karl just buys low end gear and then complains because it's not high
end gear.

I suppose that a 7000 with a SSP is considered "low end" gear then?

It was *Vadim* who was complaining about CPU usage on your boxes, not me.
