We have been using it on commercially deployed telco grade products
for 18 months or more. If you have been talking with Broadcom they can
probably provide references for you. I believe a large proportion of
their designs are Linux based now.

It's stability is fine with SMP. You application code will (should?)
crash much more than the kernel will :-)
Performance is relative to a lot of factors (board space/power/thermal
budget available). It's hard to beat the size/performance offered by
the 1250.
