I suspect that the main driver is not the amount of routing information in the gross sense, but the scalability of the protocol as the number of nodes increases.
There's a better solution: decrease the number of nodes by replacing clusters with bigger boxes. This has an additional advantage of reducing number of hops (and, consequently, latency variance).
