On the other hand a large DFZ routing table would simply dampen its growth by itself. If it gets to costly to multihome because of the hardware requirements only few would be able to so. Ergo we have a negative feedback system here keeping itself in check. Case solved and closed.
Multihomed end sites usually get away with receiving only default route or some partial routes from their upstreams. So technically you can BGP multihome with Cisco 1600 or even smaller easily (dunno where BGP support is starting to become available).
Technically yes, practically no. At least not for the purposes people normally want to multihome. -- Andre
