We got hit by this a couple of months back. We had held out from doing policy based routing for many many years, but the sheer number of small routes grew to the point where we couldn't handle the full routing table and run DCEF at the same time. We were kind of forced into it. Last I knew, we accepted anything down to a /24 for Arin allocations, and dropped everything below the minimum allocation size for all the other registries. So far, it has been working great for us, and we were able to buy another year or two out of our Cisco gear. But I can see the end of the line coming and I believe we are going to need to replace our core routers sooner rather than later.
