​Personal experience puts a current full table at ~500MB.  You could
comfortably hold 2 tables.  Possibly 3 depending on your other
configurations and how far to the edge you want to go.

Your CPU should be okay, but it's been a while since I've worked on
anything less than RE800s.  You should probably optimize your configuration
to reduce CPU load as much as possible, though.​

​Whichever one has the fewest bugs and greatest stability for your required
feature set.  Sucky answer, but different releases provide different
features and present different bugs.​

3) How big FIB is available for IPv4 on Enhanced FEB ?

​I don't think that Juniper publishes the FIB size for FEB-M10-E, but a
previous employer had one in a lab with ~500k entries.
