I may live to regret asking this, but...

I've run a lot more than that on a 9001, and it handled it all with
aplomb. They're not as fast as an RSP440 (or RSP880) but in no way did I
find them to be liabilities when running alongside measurably faster
routers in the same ASN. They were extremely competent, in fact.

So how are you measuring this, and/or how is the issue manifesting?
