Miercom test says so for the ESP20...regardless of many others opinion (inc mine) about
their c-tailored tests.
Internal cisco tests talk about nbar performance of 10 x our current pps.
I guess we'll know for sure as we get an official answer from tac.

Not that i know of. That's why i'm talking about "future" nbar
Many times ASR9k is being pushed as ASR1k's big brother, so i wouldn't be surprised if it
was to appear sometime in the future.
