How much has the second number changed? Is this the result of worsening
aggregation or simply more address space being advertised?
Core routers won't even blink at 200k routes. I wonder how many enterprise
3x00/7x00 routers will fall over due to memory issues.
Also, as we have learned previously, past routing table growth (especially
for a short period) is an extremely poor predictor of future growth.
