We are only accepting about 300k IPv4 routes currently (we filter to reduce
the table size).  We are on the multi-service-2 CAM partition profile and we
have the system-max values for ip-route and ip-cache set to 445K.

Also, we upgraded to 5.6f today to see if that would help but it did not
change anything.

CPU usage is very low across the board (under 10% use on everything), so if
it is routing in software, it isn't causing a jump in CPU load.

Are you running that MLX with a full BGP table?  20 MB/sec sounds like
you're forwarding packets over its CPU, perhaps because it ran out of CAM
space.
