The ESP40 was designed for a box that would have 1G interfaces and perhaps a couple of 10’s. The ASR1000 is a CPU based box, everything goes back to the processor and remember cisco math means half duplex not full.

I'm not sure what a CPU based box means here. ASR1k isn't using a
general purpose core like PQ3, INTC or AMD. Like CRS-1 and nPower,
ASR1k has Cisco made forwarding logic using cores from tensilica
(CPP10/popey I believe was 40 x Tensilica DI 570T, next iteration was
64 cores).
