I've had excellent results with SSO on 12.0(27)S1 and S3.  I was doing 
some BGP research one day and concocted a somewhat wild AS regular 
expression.  RSP choked instantly, but the other RSP took over 
exceptionally well.  Lots of syslog messages showing the progress, no 
apparent user impact, only hindrance was no ability to telnet to it 
until it progressed far enough through the convergence process (which 
was no big deal).
