I have a strong impression, that answer wil not be more than 20%
even in
biggerst backbones, and
will be (more likely) below 1% in the rest of the world. Which
makes a hige
space for optimization.
As of the last time that I looked at it (admittedly quite awhile
ago), something like 80% of the forwarding table had at least one hit
per minute. This may well have changed given the number of traffic
engineering prefixes that are circulating.
