There is a thread on cisco-nsp (see "MPF (was : NPE-G1 throughput, with 
and without L2TP)") discussing MFP - and perhaps I've misunderstood, but 
it appears MFP support will be dropped after 12.4(4)T, except for bug 
fixes to existing versions.

The specs on the NPE-G2, as far as BBA is concerned, suggest aggregation 
of up to 16k.  In the real world, that likely means half.  But we won't 
know for certain until the first deployments report back.
