Why do you think 6500/7600 doesn't have the required performance ? 30 Mpps Sup 2 with fabric-enabled line-cards can perform incredibly well... Having FlexWAN and other non-fabric line-cards will slow down to 15 Mpps, which is usually enough. VLAN L3 interfaces are required only on CatOS (which is today required by POS modules, unfortunately), but not on Supervisor IOS.

I've been trying to figure out the same thing, while there are several other vendors very strong in L3 GigE, Cisco's strategy (if there is one) appears to be twine and bailing wire. 6500/7600 doesn't have the performance, and VLAN L3 interfaces are just too non-intuitive for me. GSR price/performance and availability is so dismal compared to other vendors, I am willing to bet on someone else and deal with any platform immaturity. Can't say my experience with GSR is so great, either, as far as stability, reliability, etc goes. Reminds me of the GFR, the number of times I have to reboot/reload... Pete.
