I was rather surprised to find that the Ubiquiti Unifi box I bought to
play with allows NAT66/NPT -- it just warns that you lose hardware
acceleration.  My testing shows that the CPU is sufficient for my
typical home traffic.

As an aside:  Today, there are a lot of software based routing
implementations that get close to parity with "big boy" router features.
If you have enough CPU interrupts to deal with your traffic volume, you
may not meed as many ASICs as you did in the past.
