One thing I notice you don't mention is whether your BGP sessions to your upstream providers are direct or multi-hop eBGP. I know for a while some of the more bargain-basement providers were doing eBGP multi-hop feeds for full tables, which will definitely slow down convergence if the routers

Would be helpful if you let us know what platform you're running on. Assuming a Cisco, make sure next-hop-tracking not disabled (enabled by default on modern IOS), then at "BGP Prefix Independent Convergence", so your BGP process isn't walking the entire RIB to see which next-hops it needs to

Hi I got a network with two routers and two IP transit providers, each with the full BGP table. Router A is connected to provider A and router B to provider B. We use MPLS with a L3VPN with a VRF called "internet". Everything happens inside that VRF. Now if I interrupt one of the IP transit
