Manral and the list,
I did some tests, not benchmarking, last year. The goal was a loose-grained measure of the effect of a link outage on Area 0 convergence. I can repeat the tests with current operating systems and add Juniper boxes to the mix, if anyone is interested.
I would need some permissions to publish the results, but that is not a major impediment, if there is interest.

Subject: OSPF: Performance benchmarking
Hi folks,
I was going thru the IRTF archives. I saw "routing
convergence, stability
and scalability" as one of the topics to be discussed on
this list.(
http://puck.nether.net/lists/irtf-rr/0118.html )
The question may not fall in the perview of the list,
however i guess this
is one forum where I can get appropriate information. I
would like to know
whether there are any standard ways to benchmark IGP
performace (which
includes the above three), I am interested in OSPF specifically.
By the way I have gone thru Chengiz draft on convergence.
Thanks a lot,
Vishwas
