Andrew,
The Princeton SOSP paper, "Building a Robust software-based
router using NPs" has some measurements for forwarding rate
from the IXP to the host PC. But this system is not linux based,
if that is what you are looking for.
There was some discussion regarding this on this mailing list
sometime earlier which you can get in the archives.
Also, I think Georgia Tech group had presented some numbers
at the IXA 2002 workshop on moving packets between the IXP and host,
I think.
