<p>Hello Isaac,</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>The network I'm maintaining has the following amounts of BGP sessions:</p>
<p><span style="font-family:"courier new",courier,monospace"># birdc show status | head -n 1</span><br><span style="font-family:"courier new",courier,monospace">BIRD 1.6.4 ready.</span><br><span style="font-family:"courier new",courier,monospace"># birdc show protocols | wc -l</span><br><span style="font-family:"courier new",courier,monospace">216</span><br><span style="font-family:"courier new",courier,monospace"># birdc6 show protocols | wc -l</span><br><span style="font-family:"courier new",courier,monospace">211</span></p>
<p>The specifications of this router:<br>Dell R610<br>2x Intel Xeon E5520<br>24 GB RAM</p>
<p>The current load on it:<br><span style="font-family:"courier new",courier,monospace"># free -m</span><br><span style="font-family:"courier new",courier,monospace"> total used free shared buff/cache available</span><br><span style="font-family:"courier new",courier,monospace">Mem: 24102 2602 18968 266 2531 20822</span><br><span style="font-family:"courier new",courier,monospace">Swap: 2447 0 2447</span><br><span style="font-family:"courier new",courier,monospace"># uptime</span><br><span style="font-family:"courier new",courier,monospace"> 06:26:57 up 13 days, 13:02, 1 user, load average: 0.17, 0.13, 0.10</span></p>

So if you double the amount of BGP sessions, I wouldn't worry if you buy new hardware.</span></div>
