It is but nobody worries about that, we trust route servers at IX carrying way more traffic than most of these access circuits.
more sessions for sure, but rarely more traffic. The issue at hand is that multihop bgp at the isp edge is relatively straightforward to fix by using big boxes, or mpls PW head-end to tunnel to a big box, or by using small-fib boxes with large RIBs and selective fib download. IXPs solve a different set of problems, namely how to interconnect with large numbers of third party organisations with low admin overhead. There aren't easy solutions here. Nick
