    On paper, the Sup720-3bxl does 1 million routes. The reality is, the
    default config allows for:

    L3 Forwarding Resources
                  FIB TCAM usage: Total Used %Used
                       72 bits (IPv4, MPLS, EoM) 524288 229921 44%
                      144 bits (IP mcast, IPv6) 262144 5 1%

    So, with not quite full BGP routes, my lab sup720 is at 44% capacity for
    IPv4 routes. This is tunable via "mls cef maximum-routes ..." IPv6 route
    slots can be traded for 2 IPv4 slots (after a reboot).

                  FIB TCAM usage: Total Used %Used
                       72 bits (IPv4, MPLS, EoM) 770048 229899 30%
                      144 bits (IP mcast, IPv6) 139264 5 1%

    So...how many IPv6 routes are people seeing/expecting? Are you running
    with the default split, figuring if/when the time comes, you'll adjust and
    reboot?
