XR-5 & Packets per Second (PPS)

[j2sw]

I am trying to find out how many packets per second the XR-5 card can handle when attached to a Mikrotik 411 or 411ah. I can run the mikrotik bandwidth test and max out the CPU at around 30 megs aggregate. However, I am only looking at around 4,000pps aggregate. Will the card limit me at one point if I throw more processor at it?

I need to know that as well. We plan on running a 50 mile backhaul with XR5's to supply business accounts that may be using BGP (which requires high packets-per-second). I've pushed bandwidth tests with 2 mikrotik routerboards and here are the results for Point-2-Point

RB411 = 17Mbps maximum (slow processor)
RB433 = 50Mbps maximum (MUCH better)
