Hi Jason,
This is not commonplace. That prefix is from a specially designated IXP
micro allocation block. See http://bit.ly/1OEcHde for detail. The use of
these specially designated blocks is for IXPs only.
We (Akamai) don't have equipment numbered into this type of address space
nor do we have a

that sounds like a recipe for
one of the legacy uses of an IX was to place “content” near the eyeballs. For
the adventurous, this meant placing NTP chimers, DNS & route servers,
and even content directly on the switch mesh. Akamai might have been the first
to pull back from that and move its services behind an Akamai route
I'm surprised they don't set aside a small piece of their IP space that an
ISP can anycast routes locally to the cache (Maybe a /24?)

Seems like an odd waste of resources; what if Google, Akamai, Netflix, and
anyone else who wanted caches wanted IPs in that block? The IX would be out
of address space pretty quickly, forcing a majority of users to re-number
because of a small number of other users.

Those IPs appear to be used by to Google cache servers at the QIX. It's
common for CDNs to utilize provider space and not maintain their own
layer-3. E.g. cache servers connected to switch, connected to provider,
without the requirement of a router.

Local Google caches at QIX?
