Well, if you don't have 128MB of memory you're on severe trouble. Full-BGP-routing as it stands right now (all 105000 routes of it), takes around 80MB memory on your router (you can check this thru "sh proc mem" and checking the process BGP Router). And that is for a single peer giving you Full-Routing. With two, the memory allocation doesn't double, but may rise to around 100MB. So, if you want to have all that fancied'up IOS version (IP PLUS IPSEC 3DES), have Full-BGP-Routing and still be on the safe side, upgrade RAM to 256MB.
