We're running SXE3 on our peering routers with uptime of 14 weeks and 330 
megs memory usage total.

We have had quite a few cases on the 7600 12.2.18SX[DE] series, some have 
taken quite a long time to resolve (mls cef bug took 6-8 weeks and we 
never really got a good explanation or definitive fix, just recommended 
upgrade and the problem was gone), some are not resolved yet.
