Arista. They call it FIB compression. They mention it's a trade-off, more memory and CPU utilization (keeping track of things) in exchange for being able to keep hardware that might otherwise be out of FIB space able to cope with full tables.
it also causes non-deterministic fib resource consumption. On most edge deployments this won't matter, but it wouldn't be hard to cook up a topology that could fail in interesting ways. Overall fib compression is a net win, but you need to be careful with it.
