Hey Sriram, Russ, and Jakob,

Thanks for the #s.  I think I get the general notion that adding n updates per 
day per prefix equals (n * #prefixes)/1. :)  I guess my question was kinda 
vague, sorry.  Upon reexamination, I see that I said "overhead" without being 
specific.  Since we can use the updates that are generated today to measure how 
much (for example) bandwidth is already needed, can we calculate how much extra 
bandwidth universal deployment would mean?  Also, perhaps this would be most 
informative in the form of a ratio (i.e. a factor of $x$ increase).  That way, 
when people look at events like the one that the "General Internet Instability" 
thread that just happened on NANOG refer to, they can gauge the update 
amplification that was seen against what _would_ be seen given bgpsec.  I think 
this actually kind of came up on nanog, so it seems like maybe it would be a 
relevant thing to look at here?

Anyway, I guess I was mostly just curious about what kinds of evaluations have 
been done, thanks. :)

Eric
