Not really the point. You can get 50-100gbps out of an x86 running DPDK by throwing more cores at it without appreciably changing the memory and CPU for the BGP load. My little 4 gig generic Linux VMs that connect my leaf node to the Internet are the ones I have reliable information on, so that's what I shared.
