I would also like to know any update regarding the release date.
Mainly because I would love trying this than purchasing a Cisco 7604 router.
Only if it can do > 1Gbps tcp stream

We need these too.
Dual hot swap power supplies are the main attraction
Why wouldn’t it be able to do this?

Current model CCR’s (even with 10GBit interfaces) appear to be limited to single CPU core per single TCP stream. A CPU core seems to be able to handle around 1gbps traffic, ergo, any single stream appears limited to 1gbps.
ROS7 should fix this problem, and I personally wouldn’t be surprised if they held off of 1072 until ROS7 is ready, but on a support ticket I have been told that 1072 will likely release with ROS6
Joe,
Have you had it confirmed ROSv7 will fix the 1Gbit per connection issue ?
Joe,

Unfortunately it is conjecture - but it is a major performance flaw related to the multi-threaded nature of the Tilera CPU’s. ROSv7 has been stated to be written in mind of utilising the multi-core architecture, a lot of this talk has been more around processes such as BGP, but one would think offering 10gbit interfaces on the 36 core, and the models we’ve seen of 1072 in the wild having 8 10gbit ports (if I remember correctly) they would certainly need to support multi gbit TCP streams.
So my ‘should’ should really be bold, italics, and highlighted (lol) and it is only my personal opinion.
Sorry, but i do not get these talks about 1Gbps+ TCP connection
Where do you have actual use for this?
For regular size packets (MTU/MRU 1500)
Latency have to be in microseconds to get such TCP connection speed, so it is impossible over Internet anyway
OK, one can use it in server rooms, but you can easily do it with 10G switch there.
Only possible way to get such TCP speeds is with large size packets (MTU/MRU 65535), but currently it is also impossible over Internet, so we are back to server rooms
Maybe in future, but at this point in time this is hardly the biggest issue.

Just because its not current usage requirement doesnt mean it should be limited to that. It is obvious what the problem is, and fixing it now before its a real problem for the general use is a good option. 1 valud example that comes to mind is perhaps private x-connect to another provider in the same DC, for backup or DR purposes.

there are lots of things that are more pressing for improvement than this, so i do not think they should waste time fixing it now. sometimes later yes.
Also i do not agree that it is “obvious what the problem is”. Parallel multi-processing is always a hard stuff
We are a cloud services provider and use CCR to leak routes to/from our backups VRF. We can easily generate over 1gbit in a single stream to one of the backup agents.
Not everyone is using these for Internet. …
We never have problems pushing more than 1gig via TCP on a single connection. I don’t think I’ve seen a single core rise above 3 or 4% when routing a few gig. Keep in mind, we have no queues, no firewall, and fastpath is on, so perhaps thats where you’re experiencing the ceiling?
2015 still no update on this
Yup still waiting, in need of a router with at least 4 x SFP+ ports.
we are all here waiting…
crickets…
