you shouldn't lose performance on any PAN-OS, especially in the dataplane, if your configuration remains the same

Hi,

This is something that only you can determine the best version by reading release notes and security advisories. 2000 series are known for high MP/DP CPU utilisation. This is "fixed" in 7.X.X releases

Thx,

I'm not sure if there really is any particular document that you can point too in particular.
