Weird is that ISIS/OSPF and LDP did not flap 
I mean for BGP to flap there must have been 180sec of silence

Subject: [c-nsp] BGP session going down during DDOS

Today we had a couple of dozen Gbps traffic to one of our customer.

At one point during attack, our PE router where the customer is attached had a BGP session to one of our RR go down, only to go up after half a minute.

Our core has juniper/asr9k, our PE router in question is 7600.

All our traffic is properly classified from RR to 7600 in both directions.
The CPU stayed fairly low on PE, so if traffic is properly classified, how is it possible for router to drop BGP control plane?

If input queues are an issue, shouldn't default SPD configuration take care of that on 7600?

How to make sure this doesn't happen again?

Regards
