Mike,

If I follow your observation, routing computation growth is non-linearly related to number of routes. Or is it orthogonal? If the growth is related to the announcement, this infers that costs incurred for the announcement of routes by ISP FOO to ISP BAR would be non-linear with the quantity, correct?

I would suggest that the number of prefixes in the global routing table *is* linearly related to the amount of computational overhead. - paul
