Because my old ISG1000 firewalls are superior than my SRX3400 firewalls. Not only do they support IPv6 in "route" mode, they support it in flow-based packet filtering mode. The SRX3400s do not support IPv6 at all. ISG1000s on ScreenOS, on the other hand, support IPv6 no problem. > Sorry, I didn't mean to kindle a holy war :) Just my opinion.

Any issues or something? > Yes, that is precisely the problem. 2x SRX3400s in chassis cluster mode, receiving full route table from 2 providers, it takes approximately 5 minutes for the route process to finish injecting routes in to the kernel routing table. The overall process of a chassis cluster failover, when BGP is enabled, is extremely slow. We're talking minutes of downtime. Chassis cluster failover when upstream is configured via static route is < 10 seconds. It's still slower than the ScreenOS failover.
