[c-nsp] GRE throughput

Anyone have any numbers (either real-world or from the marketing department)
for GRE throughput on Cisco devices?  The only number I could find is for
the tunnel card on the 12000 -- 2.7Mpps.  I see that the PFC3 can do GRE in
hardware with newer code (whether it's entirely hardware-based or somewhat
hardware-assisted isn't clear), and the 6500/7600 VPN Services Module claims
to accelerate GRE.  But no numbers.

Thanks,
Terry
