But I thought the problem is not *size* of the table, but *changes* in the table. With zero updates, a BGP table of double the current size would not bother any core router on the 'Net today.
The global telephone table takes months to change, would that be slow enough? Do networks worldwide really need to know everytime a router in East Nowhere reboots?
So, let's work on things like progressive flap dampening. I believe you suggested this before, Sean?
Flap dampening measured by the symptom is fine. The more you flap, the more you are dampened. But as at least one group of academics found, the length of the prefix is not related to its propensity to flap. Proposing a /24 should be dampened for a longer period, for the same number of flaps, than a /8 is misguided.
