Steven,

    Every interfaces includes subinterface(sw), physical interface(hw),
virtual/logical interface(sw) is divided into s/w & h/w category. Each
Software IDBs takes ~2600bytes v/s Hardware IDBs takes ~4700bytes. No.of
IDBs you want to use it depends upon your system resources have it
currently, going with higher number of subinterfaces may slow down boot
process since it has to nvgen configuration, slow-down other processes like
"sh run" & saving configuration to nvram may not fit with or without
compression, etc...

thanks,
rahul.
