tom specifically mentioned "1M being the best estimate ... with the
foreseeable improvements to current technology" but we already have this on
e.g. asr9000 typhoon cards.  Whether your particular boxes handle a 1m v6
fib is a different issue; the point is that the technology already exists
and given the small DFZ and (currently) linear growth rate, there is no
short / medium term fear here, and arguably no long term cause of concern
either.
