I wasn't sure from your reply if you agreed with my numbers, or wanted to
revise them.  I think some numbers should go into the document, do you?

5 suites makes sense.
120 does not sense to me, do you know what the combinatorics involved are?
Since the gateway picks one and replies, the situation where the gateway
wants to continue with the same one, there doesn't seem to be that much savings.

I don't think it's *exponential*, I think it's linear per connection :-)
If you want to count savings per gateway, then it's O(n*m) where n=number of
clients, m=number of suites.
