handling large numbers of EBGP peers

I've got a router on Mae West with an open peering policy that has
close to 70 peers.

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.

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?
