The ARM is running at 20 MHz and is at 80-85% CPU utilization (using
uC/OS-II, the CPU pct loading is an optional feature that can be
enabled, i.e. I'm pulling the figure out of my you-know-what)


If you add an ATmega162 to the SPI bus you can let it bridge to the two
UARTs.
The GSM 07.10 protocol will let you multiplex two UART channels on the SPI
bus.

Do you perhaps have a link where I can get details on the GSM 07.20
protocol.

Since I used an ATMega162 for this exact application, I agree that it
is a good solution. The ATMega162 has absolutely no problem in
handling 2x full duplex channels at 115200 baud, and using the SPI
channel to multiplex the data.
