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 ?
