odd.

I also noticed that routerperformance.pdf suggests that the max throughput
on an esp20 is 13Gbit/sec @ 25mpps/64 bytes per packet.  While this pdf
doesn't provide the exact configuration used in the testing, it would seem
reasonable to believe that because the figure is > 10G, that there was more
than a single sip10 in use.  Frustrating not to know what this figure
actually refers to :-(

Anyway, the public specs are quite clear that the bandwidth available off
the ESP20 is fully 20Gbit/sec.  If you aren't getting this even with a
single 10GE spa per sip10, then this definitely looks wrong and Cisco have
some explaining to do.
