Thank you for all your replys !
Sorry for the lack of more info .
There are 12000s, with 12.0+ IOS , has one or more
EBGP peers and 10+ IBGP .
Customer gave us continuous ping and pinpoint this 60s
thing .
I think Chris Konger is right .
We will put more memory and enable CEF on the line
cards to see if its better .

ping's to the router will show this, and cannot be used for anything,
what about end to end traffic ?

The 12000's cannot run without CEF, so you have that enabled, and
the amount of memory on the LineCards doesn't affect this.

We've brought this concern up to Cisco before and they assured us that
everything is performing normally. You will see this when performing
router to router pings as well however, we have been told that packet
forwarding does not suffer. ICMP replies from the router (not through
the router) are given a very low CPU priority.

Seconded. Ping response times or lack of ping response from routers
signifies *nothing*. Ditto for traceroutes, &c. Ping *through* the
router, not *to* the router.
I think we're all in agreement here. Here's what I said Tang after he
said what his platform was. The original message didn't have that info,
so I sent several possibilities - all off channel. Wasn't on nanog-post
at the time (which is why the larger group was not CC'd).
