There are many companies now in the "route control" field such as Route 
Science, Netvmg, Proficient Networks and many others.  A recent one I 
spotted is Radware:

See page 5: "Some peers are still overloaded, configure smaller CIDRs".

Are we about to see a growth in the routing table size after seeing a 
slowing down in 2001: http://www.telstra.net/ops/bgp/bgp-active.html ?
