I have a client running a 2501 that peaks around 1.4mbit of traffic and is
also managing to forward via WCCP to a Squid box. CPU peaks around 60-70%
and there is some additional latency because of this. However, it does
work and works far better than IP policy did.

I hardly notice the load on our 3620.
