I'm using Sup720s, and not seeing that.

The Sup720 can do 1 million routes too.  Can you point out where cisco 
says the implementation is any different between the Sup720, RSP720, and 
Sup2T that makes the latter capable of handling more v4/v6 routes than the 
former.  Everything I've seen says the FIB TCAM space has not been 
improved.
