[nsp] 7200 NPE-G1 and GE performance

[Spin]

OK, the G1 processor is the limit for traffic, but I assume that  
900Kpps are MORE that 3Gbit/s of traffic. Right?

And, what for the second processor??? The docs at the begin stated that  
a second processor is installed on the board but is unused. Now all the  
reference is removed.
Strange things happen in Cisco these days.
