When I saw the first message on this topic I thought the issue was
one of an outdated algorithm for routing table maintenance and not
one of just increasing the table size to get over the current hump.
Since some of the gateways will never have much memory (when is there
ever "enough"?) it would appear that a name server model for 
gateways is in order.  Hosts already have to deal with this issue
(if they are playing it "honestly").
