Take heed to the warning of not testing this on a producton network. Never had a problem w/CPU over utilization, BUT my organization has had A LOT of problems with buffer utilization/overflow on GSR's on 12K's. We have experienced small pvc's (5MB or less) dragging down entire OC-3 aggregate circuits due to buffer problems(not supposed to be possible). Problem was not solved even after we upgraded IOS & cards memory to maximum. We ended up buying 10K's for each hub to add a distribution layer to our network. Expensive fix.
