I think partial routes makes perfect sense, makes sense that traffic for customers who are connected to each of my upstreams should go out of the correct BGP link as long as they are up! Now I need to start thinking of BGP router choices, sure I have a plethora of choices :-(
Personally I'll always go for full routes if the router has enough memory (software based) or TCAM space (hardware based). Cheaper to do on software platforms though. An entry level Cisco 2811 can take full tables from multiple upstreams with 786MB RAM or even 512. It won't push 100 meg of mixed traffic though. ~Seth
