[c-nsp] Route processor memory at 99% on 720-3bxl

[Mack McBride]

The BGP process does receive the updates.  It also has its own version of the RIB.
The IP RIB Update process handles the 'installed routes' and pushes things out to the CEF.

You can't stop the control plane from receiving the routes once they have arrived. But you can stop the data plane from doing so.
