Today's global BGP table (at least from one view) contains approx. 95,000
entries (and it went over 100,000 for a short time yesterday). Take a look
at http://www.mcvax.org/~jhma/routing/ for three years' history and a daily
generated list of aggregation possibilities which could take the routing table
down to a mere 65,000 or so entries.
