No. The RE only holds the RIB. The FIB is held in static (SRAM) memory
in the CFEB (may be RLDRAM in the enchanced CFEB). Both are important,
the CFEB is what performs the actual packet pushing.
Having a box with many Gigs of RE memory won't help if you overflow
the CFEB (or in general the PFE) memory.
