How many AS PATHS are too many?
Well - how many do you see when things are operating nominally? How many do you regard as "the other end is obviously too crazy to listen to"? Add them up and divide by two. Of course, the hard part is quantifying those two values - the network engineers for the AS I work for probably have a different tolerance level for such shenanigans than the guys running a Tier 1/1.5/more-than-2 network (and *those* guys almost certainly have different tolerances based on which of their peers and transits they're talking to)....
