Actually that switch has hardware accelerated routing as well with RouterOS 7 IIRC. Take a look at the test results, for large packets that router will still do over 10G throughput with 25 ip filter rules. With no queues or rules it'll do routing just as fast as switching.

Edit: Looks like he changed from the switch to a separate router but look at the change log for the latest R7 release

So you get L3 even for this monster. https://mikrotik.com/product/crs326_24s_2q_rm

Interesting. I had only looked at RouterOS 6. I have had trouble with mikrotik software before though. (I have a CSS 610 and a lot of its core features were completely broken before)
