Yes a very big unless. Multi-core processors are already available that would make very large BGP convergence possible. Change the algorithm as well and perhaps add some multi-threading to it and it's even better.
i'll be happy to review the data sheets and prices of routers w/ multicore processors. pointers accepted. changing the algorithm might be a bit harder, as i think you'll need to change the BGP core spec for that. --bill
