I've never used a Cisco PIX, so I can't say.

The IRX211 has all the performance I've needed for what I use them for,
which is a 2 Ethernet filtering router between my firewall bastion and
my interior network.  I did use it as an exterior router, but changed
to a Cisco 4000M because I needed 2 Ethernet and BRI.  If I upgrade to
Frame Relay, I'll probably swap the Cisco 4000M and the IRX211.

Disclaimer: happy customer.

On that note,
if anyone is interested in buying one of these IRX-211's used,
please email me.  I have a few that I am not using in production 
and would like to sell.
