If rumors are true, the NPE-G1 has a second CPU on the board that's just
not yet used.  What I'd really like to see is a software upgrade enabling 
that CPU, and bumping up the processing performance quite some...

It might not be overly helpful for "raw packet forwarding", but things
like L2TP termination might benefit from a second CPU sharing the
work...
