I've got a router on Mae West with an open peering policy that has

Sorry, we are not at MAE(E/W) right now. What effect does running 70 peers on a
4700 give, is ita memory or just a not enough UMPH problem?

1. Consider using RA for less important peers. This saves you EBGP sessions.
2. I'm running a 7507 at MAE-East with a similar number of peers which
   is as stable as MAE-East allows it to be.
