- bgpd crashes
- bgpd loading as hell after some time (can be fixed by restarting the
process ..)
- cumulus by itself (switchd & portwd) loads as hell as well, all the
time, the hardware is under pressure all the time (which is an issue for
CPU-based stuff : monitoring, sflow etc)

>    - What hardware are you running Cumulus Linux on?
5712-54X-O-AC-F from edgecore
(https://www.edge-core.com/productsInfo.php?cls=&cls2=&cls3=44&id=15),
which has specific issues by itself as well :/

The last one, 3.5.2
