Hi all,
	When a 6509/Sup720 populated with all dcef720 fabric cards moves into 
truncated mode because of the insertion of a non-fabric card, what is 
the anticipated hit on performance if nearly all traffic is between DCEF 
cards?  I understand central forwarding takes a hit in terms of PPS, but 
can you characterize what hit a DCEF linecard forwarding across the 
switch fabric might take?
