no one mentioned anything about a bug..

we wanted to see if the 3845 could handle a 100mbps connection. so in our
lab, we pushed traffic to the 3845. as i stated before, we were encrypting
the traffic. on demand, we could crash the router. @ ~65mbps, the router
crashed.

as scott mentioned, one would look at you twice if you tried to use the 3845
on a >100mbps link.
