It wouldn't hurt if the vast majority of those prefixes were the same
length (say /48).  There are max-two memory access schemes for fixed
length keys.

If the space is densely populated you can simply use an array, this is extemely efficient.


Is there any actual chance of having a densely populated space in IPv6 ?
