My day job lets me "play" with "fucking expensive ones", I love that
statement Claudio.  If you want commercial hardware that handles
large PPS rates you get purpose built hardware, not a Cisco router.

I also support 100M feeds going through Soekris 5501 running OpenBSD 
and they perform very well.

I also want to add in the comment that any IPv6 filtering is done in
software, no matter who's box you get.
