OpenBSD on a lanner appliance with openbgpd will chew 1G. Especially on the latest version - 6.2.

Debian on the same lanner running bird would also chew that as well.

The router needs to be squeezed in to a rack which doesn't have a lot
of space nor power. As for space, maybe I can make space for 3U or 4U
but as for power, I can only do around 1.5A@100V on average. (There is
room for burst power usage.)

A Cisco 2911 or 3945 does this though the 3945 is a little more power hungry.

A current generation x86 server running Linux and Quagga does this.
