For any use cases that you want protocol interaction, but not substantive
traffic forwarding capabilities , cRPD is by far the better option.

It can handle around 1M total RIB/FIB using around 2G RAM, right in Docker
or k8. The last version of vMX I played with required at least 5G RAM / 4
cores to even start the vRE and vPFEs up, plus you have to do a bunch of
KVM tweaking and customization, along with NIC driver fun. All of that has
to work right just to START the thing, even if you have no intent to use it
for forwarding. You could have cRPD up in 20 minutes on even a crappy Linux
host. vMX has a lot more overhead.
