I am running a pair of Arista DCS-7280QRA-C36S-M-R
. By default it can take about 900k v4 routes which is a little short of a
full table. But airsta does have flexroute and FIB compression which both
reduce the actual number of routers in the RIB.

The two routers are running iBGP and I dont filter between then. I have 3x
full table upsteams, 2x ix connections and about 20 other bgp peers. I take
all routes from IX and bgp peers. From the full tables upstreams I take a
full table but only accept routes from there AS or one hop ways AS.
After the ASN path filter I get 154k routes from cogent, 94k from GTT and
230k from HE

My active routes on each router is less than 200k due to flexroute and FIB
compression.
