Guys,

I am wondering how many of you are doing layer 3 to top of rack
switches and what the pros and cons are. Also, if you are doing layer
3 to top of  rack do you guys have any links to published white papers
on it?

Dani Roisman gave an excellent talk on this subject at NANOG 46 in
Philadelpha:

I'd always wondered how you make a subnet available across racks with L3
rack switching. It seems that you don't.
