I have, but it's been several years since I did so. At the time, Juniper
ate the other 2 for lunch. But Cisco, at least, has definitely improved
since then. I have seen nothing on the Checkpoint side to change my
opinion of them (just try and get them to give you 64-byte PPS
throughput numbers - I dare ya').
