You may have missed noticing it... I had provided the reference and the numbers in my eralier email -- http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/sidr/current/msg03586.html
According to http://bgpupdates.potaroo.net/instability/bgpupd.html the current global BGP system produces __ Average Prefixes per BGP Update: 2.24 __ Average BGP Update Messages per second: 1.13 Average Prefix Updates per second: 2.53 >From this we can compute: Average Prefix Updates per day = 218696 So yes, I did consider the _prefix _ updates as is the case in BGPSEC (not updates with packing in it).

I had thought randy referenced the thing I am remembering, I'll ask once I get to the meeting venue. I think he's also pointed to some study work on the effect of ingesting 1x prefix vs packed prefixes... > The only quantitative analysis I've seen of this is here: > <http://www.tcb.net/stuff/danny-ucla-pack.pdf> > It's 3 months of data from 6 monitors.
