For the 312534906703247th time:

Switching  Balancing per-
Process    packet
Fast       dest (net)
Flow       flow
CEF*       src-dest pair
CEF**      packet

* by default
** with "ip load-sharing per-packet" on incoming interface

If you want to crater your router, sure.  Otherwise, I'd consider one of the
