[c-nsp] 3825 as bgp router?

  I have a 3845 running full table sessions with 2 peers on a 100 mbps
transit connection. It cooks along at 90 Mbps with no issues. Generally
it never breaches the 10% CPU mark. Memory usage is sitting steadily at
208 MB. 

  It has been a good little router, and we've definitely gotten a lot of
bang for our buck.
