I was using the 256.sdf file, 3845 router. The reason that I originally opened a TAC case was because I caught the bugger crashing in my logs, I just so happened to be on the console while it dumped.
Once I opend the case they asked me to send them the 256.dsf file, they couldn't locate it because it was so new. No problem, they found the problem signiture and had me disable it, then later delete it. I left the case open planning to update the 256.sdf file, or image, or whatever the recommended fix was and viola, started to get crashes again two weeks later. Deleted another recommended signiture.
Users were complaining about slowness that I had wrongly attributed to distance (since I couldn't see any problems at L2-4), so one day I figured that I would strip the config to see if things got better for them, and it did! Reapplied features one at a time and found that it was the IPS that was slowing everything down. I asked TAC about it and they told me it was a different issue, open another case, etc. Instead I just closed the current one and turned off IPS, logs are a little lighter but my users aren't complaining. Still running with ACL's and CBAC, no problems.
