My experience with the NPE-G1s in a cable environment has been nothing
but excellent.  As for running them in a core/backbone type environment,
I'm not quite sure.  However while utilizing one GE port at
50Mbps/20Mbps, with 2500+ DOCSIS devices the G1 never exceeded 35% proc
util.

Npe-G1 main processor , BCM1250 is  multiprocessor chip
with two mips CPU's and 3GE mac's . So , there is certainly
hw possibilty : question is if IOS design is multiprocessor friendly .
It would be really interesting to see such thing alive :)
