I'm a little scared to do this now that I've read some of the issues
people have had with the RB1100s.. the busy sites are not the best place
in the network to start having failures!
The 'worst' site right now is a location that has 8 backhauls coming
into it, only three have gig ports so I guess the RB800+expansion would
work too. Doesn't leave me much room for growth though.

PPC is way better than MIPS as Butch said. I can't say what percentage but
you'll see a good improvement. Might make sense to replace one busy site
and give it a week.

Getting up to 50% on some of the routers - you have any comparison on
the RB1200s? I don't really want to replace something to gain another
120MHz and have it shave off 5%.. but I don't know if the PPC processors
are more efficient.
I'm tempted to just source a bunch of atom boxes but the RB800+expansion
looks like a potential winner.. I just wish the ports were all gig on
the expansion card.

I've purchased a few RB1200s from Roc-Noc. They had a few left last
time I looked.
Right now I'm using them as Multilink DSL CPE (5x6Meg DSL) with your
QoS script. Probably overkill but I like to keep the CPU usage down.
On the other hand none of our RB1100s have failed yet either. Not that
we have many of them in use.

I would not
recommend the RB1100 and the RB1200 (a step down) is not available
everywhere, yet (not sure it's even in the US market, yet).
