[c-nsp] 7500 performance (was: Re: IO 7200 GE Improve Performance and help with the CPU Load?)

[Walter Keen]

Speaking of CPU performance, does anyone have any feedback on the Cisco 
7500 series, I'm considering using it instead of multiple 7204's to 
aggregate/terminate atm (9 oc3, 1 ds3) and T1 (channelized ds3) traffic, 
I'm looking at the RSP8, with vip4-80's and the appropriate PA's, and 
planning on doing etherchannel on (2) pa-fe's back to our core (7613) 
router.
