Well, that's a lot.  BGP is designed with that in mind -- it uses
incremental updates layered over a reliable protocol, and therefore scales
beautifully in a stable network.  Babel uses unreliable updates, on the
assumption that it is used in an unstable network.

I don't think that Babel is the right tool for dealing with such large
numbers of routes.

It really looks like you want BGP.  Why don't we work together on adding
SADR to BGP?
