For high speed (fixed time) routed look up with 1M entries, SRAM is cheap at /24 and is fine at /32 but expensive and power consuming TCAM is required at /48.

That's one reason why we should stay away from IPv6.

I found this bit of research from 2007 ( http://www.cise.ufl.edu/~wlu/papers/tcam.pdf ). It seems to me there are probably more ways to mix and match different types of ram to be able to deal with this beast. james
