> Randy - do you think that with the modelling that NIST provided

i am not very confident in any modeling done to date and am not making
grand opinions until i, or others, have time to do credible measurement.

but i do have some thought about what i want to model, mostly stolen
from others

    due to design lead times and pricing, what will be on routing engine
    boards in three to five years is whatever is available as commodity
    today.  i.e. what does a hot westmere chip give us?  with a cheap
    crypto chip?

    as a vendor friend says, if ipv6 deploys, insha allah, we're gonna
    be upgrading those routers to do real v6 forwarding.  if it does not
    deploy, you will be deploying massively bigger boxes to nat your ass
    into hell.
