[j-nsp] Cisco 7600 vs. M10i performance tests

[Phil Rosenthal]

I've been looking at that same report, and trying to make sense of it.

I have both devices in my network, and both seem to work well for  
me.  Then again, I'm not forwarding anywhere near 1.488Mpps per gig- 
e, but rather something on the order of 300kpps per gig-e.

If someone from juniper can post something to explain those results  
I'd love to hear it (eg: what acl's/firewall filters did they use?) -  
I am assuming (hoping?) this was with logging or counters enabled, or  
something similarly dumb.
