That's one reason why the space was designed to be so big. Being penny-wise and pound-foolish doesn't really save you much in the IPv6 address space.
.. address aggregation? .. convergence time? I'm sorry, but seeing a good fraction of my local IX simply containing a few ISP's deaggregated view of their "local" internal networks versus a sensible allocation policy makes me cry. IPv6 may just make this worse. IPv6 certainly won't make it "better". adrian
