Arista 7280E: Ultra deep 9GB of packet buffers
Total System Buffer
10Gbps: 9x8Gb/10Gb = 7.2 sec
40Bgps: 9x8Gb/40Gb = 1.8 sec
100Bgps: 9x8Gb/10Gb = 0.72 sec or 720msec
QFX10k: up to 100ms per ports ( any ports)
10Gbps: 10Gb/.01sec = 100Gb 10Gbps x 0.1sec = 1Gb / 8 = 12.5 GB0.125 GB per ports
40Bgps: 40Gb/.01sec = 400Gb 0Gbps x 0.1sec = 4Gb / 8 = 0.25 GBGB per ports
100Bgps: 100Gb/.01sec = 1000Gb 100Gbps x 0.1sec = 10Gb / 8 = 125 GB1.25 GB per ports
