RB1000 & BGP

How will the RB1000 handle full BGP tables to one provider on GigE circuit and perhaps a 100Mbps circuit to a 2nd only for redundancy? Will likely bridge ports 3 and 4 and each will feed up to 500Mbps to my two NOC's through PtP circuits but no BGP there. Just wandering if the RB1000 has enough CPU to do this?

our experience has been that it doesn't do all that well. If you turn off basically everything else (conntrack, queues, firewall) it will get by with 2 peers probably. It takes a long time to converge. we ended up moving to a powerouter 732

So, basically just an
x86 box.
