As with others, it's been a while since I've worked on this platform (we were running 12.2SR train generally).
Having said that, I agree that for some reason the 7201 did show higher CPU for the same traffic level as other platforms - but as mentioned we found it levelled off with increasing traffic. I'd suggest just watching the CPU closely as traffic grows, 35% isn't a scary number, even if it is high for 200Mbps.
