I am thinking about enabling ip accounting on selected interfaces. However,
I have a few questions concerning its usage.

1.	How much memory (on average) does it take per entry?

2.	If I have the following setup, will enabling ip accounting on
	interface A record all outbound traffic from hosts on subnets
	B, C, and D to hosts on A (and beyond)?

             |
	+----A----+
        |         |
        +-B--C--D-+
          |  |  |
          |  |  |

Thanks for any thoughts on the matter.
