Keep in mind that 14.2 is the last supported software version for 
RE-S-1300 (TSB16556). Looks like newer versions require more RAM than 
this RE can hold  :( 
After about a half-year uptime one of our routers with RE-S-1300 and
15.1F5-S1 got into a problem with memory overconsumption:

20:40:05 rpd[3118]: RPD_KRT_Q_RETRIES: Route Update: Cannot allocate memory
20:40:08 kernel: rt_pfe_veto: Memory over consumed. Op 1 err 12, rtsm_id 5:-1, msg type 2
20:40:13 kernel: rt_pfe_veto: Memory over consumed. Op 1 err 12, rtsm_id 5:-1, msg type 2

under these conditions ssh/telnet access stopped working, some routes
were not installed into FIB and so on...

PS: back to subject: can confirm that we got no problems (yet?) 
running 15.1F5-S1/15.1F7 on DPC.
