I believe that with the later versions of code access lists are fast switched
not process switched so the processor doesnt have to process each packet.
Also, if you have a MSFC or PFC you can do layer 3 access lists at layer two
speeds if the "flow" meets the critera.

Before and after after applying the acl to the interface you can do a 'show
