Volkan,

you are confusing routing and forwarding.

how would you route 800 Gigabit-ethernet that will soon be released as IEEE

we were paying 1 usd per megabit several years ago. now it is as low as 4
usd cent.

As i said before, the future is coming just now. There must be ways to
increase CPU caches and memories of routers.

It is also about wholesale. When you buy cheaper routers, powerful routers
stay expensive.

But when everybody upgrades, memory and processor unit prices decrease..
Vendors gain from demand.

called a TCAM that's very fast but both expensive and power hungry, so
generally not sized for huge numbers of tiny routes.
