lol.  a) try splitting your table between multiple routers virtual or
otherwise and let me know how that works out.  b) So someone shows up and
pitches a router where the specs are based on the power of a single logical
router x the number of logical routers I can create.  If my response is to
purchase said contraption and put it in my network, whatever happens then is
my fault. c) It would be extremely ironic if the EOL'd the 16G RE and
release one with a bigger proc before the extra ram becomes useful like they
did with the first 2G RE.
