It's possible but you'll have to manually select a non-default CAM 
profile to allow for more routes in the hardware.  Default is 262,144 
which is not enough for today's Internet full routing table.

See the "cam-partition" command in the manual, you'll want 
"ipv4" or "ipv4-ipv6-2" - no VPNs/VRFs then anymore, though.
