CCRs are a bit slow on unstable bgp reconvergence. 
I've been running dual gigabit plus feeds in CCRs for a few years now. My feeds 
are very stable so it was never an issue except during the rare reboot.

However, a CHR in VMWARE vastly outperforms the CCR in bgp convergence. From 
boot to full tables in under 20 seconds.

You can get good hardware for sub $2000, add in vmware esxi and build the CHR 
image, 10G licenses for $295.

YMMV,
JP
