Hmm... Do you have any of these boxes?
My impression is that a 4500 w/ 3 or 4 full views still takes well
under 24mb, and doesn't impact the performance of the box at all.

I do speak from some personal experience, yes.

There are many unaccounted for variables here. You certainly don't
have as many unadvertised more specifics as we do, as much stuff in
the IGP, etc., etc. Those doing less will get some more breathing
room, but unless many more people get more more serious about reducing
global routing tables it won't be too long before 32MB will not be
enough for anyone.
