I am wondering if there any performance issue with using PBR on a Cisco 6500 with Sup720?

I think (correction welcome) that it only works in hardware based upon matching an extended ACL - any attempt to do things like match on packet size, etc. results in software switching.

PBR by its nature is operationally brittle and ugly; if there's another way to accomplish one's goal, it's generally best to pursue an alternate method, if at all possible.

        Unfortunately, inefficiency scales really well.
