[c-nsp] Cisco's new 4500-X 10G Aggregation Switches

[Skeeve Stevens]

All,

Just a question with the 4500-X.  Why would the routing performance be
halved for v4 vs v6?

IPv4 Routing Performance: 245Mpps
IPv6 Routing Performance: 122Mpps

You think in this day and age they'd be giving v6 as much oomph as v4.
 Especially with the lifecycle of this kind of kit.  I know they aren't
routers, but….
