Hi Clarke,

Are you using some MX80 routers ? :)

But on my end, even though BGP starts to change the preference for the incoming routes fairly quickly, it takes a long time to push the changes to the forwarding tables in the PFE.  With the full Internet table, I have seen it take up to about 80 to 90 seconds for a few selected routes.
