If you're advertising a large number of routes to your 31 peers (full or partial tables) then you'll need to adjust your routing architecture somewhat and consider using the CCR1072 more for transit and offload some of the peerings with a larger number of routes onto a CHR or x86 VM with a public route reflector (depends on throughput requirements).
You can easily get over 100 peerings on a CCR but the route count has to be lower.

We're only passing ~1g at peak times currently, but the resources display shows 100% CPU on one of the cores continuously. If we look at the load profiler, it says that "routing" is consuming 100% of that core. We have 31 BGP peers and 25 route filters on the router. I'm wondering what we can do to lessen or spread the load around a bit. Thanks, Kevin
