BGP is slow. Painfully so. I have 2x SRX3400 in a chassis cluster config getting 2 full BGP tables. I would say it takes at least 5 minutes for the BGP updates to complete and for the device to be usable.
IPv6 support will be in 10.2 for SRX3400 and higher. 10.2R1 exists today but has a number of interesting bugs. I wouldn't really recommend this device as a router. I just purchased some MX240s to take over the routing role from my SRX3400s.
