What problem are you trying to solve?

Even small routers have some distributed intelligence -- the physical 
and data link handling are not in the main processor.  As you move up 
in routing power, more and more ASICs and processors are involved in 
handling an individual packet.  Performance can vary significanty 
with the particular path a packet takes through the router.

So the MHz of one processor doesn't necessarily determine router 
performance.  Indeed, I'm not even sure if MHz is a meaningful 
measurement for some of the ASICs.  Perhaps a more hardware-literate 
person can comment there--they presumably are clocked.

Another area, more to the point in very high speed routers, is that 
the chips are evolving to having multiple data streams and possibly 
multiple instruction streams.
