[Cake] [Bloat] some mikrotik comments

[Thomas Croghan]

Ya, I've got access to most of their CCR line, and I have a smattering of
their RB line. TBH, the only places I think you will see interesting data
is with the 1072 (72 tile core 1 GHz) and the 2004 (4 core 1.7 GHz ARM64).

I'm also with The Brother's WISP, so if Dave wants to do a cast I can set
that up with the other guys. I'm pretty sure there was some conversation
about trying to get Dave on a while back.
