Yes, AMSIX have OpenBGPD running. However, they are not forwarding the 1+ Tbit/s traffic that they do in aggregate with OpenBGPD. That's the member equipment, running probably every possible type of device known to man. The OpenBGPD instances are routeservers. See also http://www.openbsd.org/openbgpd/users.html (first entry at the time of writing). For the OP, if you want wirespeed (ASIC based) forwarding, you're looking at a different budget than a high-end machine with a few gbit interfaces. I'd say OpenBSD on a good machine performs on par with cpu-based (higer priced) cisco's or better. Machine details can be found in the archives, search for posts from eg. henn...@.
