The default tcam config gives:

 The current template is the default template.
 The selected template optimizes the resources in
 the switch to support this level of features for
 8 routed interfaces and 1K VLANs.

 number of unicast mac addresses:   5K
 number of igmp groups:             1K
 number of qos aces:                1K
 number of security aces:           1K
 number of unicast routes:          8K
 number of multicast routes:        1K

Obviously the 8 routed interfaces is more of a suggestion than limit.
It'd be really nice if there were commands that could be used to look at
the resources used/shared by the above things so we could see how far we
are from hitting the wall.
