I've always thought of the J-Series as an enterprise/remote site router and not a service provider device. Strangely enough I can't find the throughput ratings on the data sheet, but I'm sure it's lower than the M/MX and the like. I'm not sure if it can handle 2-3G of traffic, you should ask the reseller for specs or search juniper.net. The other thing I noticed was that it only supports a max of 400k BGP routes. If the full table is 340 or so that doesn't leave much for L2/L3 vrf's. Just my 2c.
