Doesn't "nexthop qualify via" help this?
If set to bgp, bgpd(8) may use BGP routes to verify nexthops.

Again I know it can handle lots of sessions, and lots of routes over those
sessions it's getting them into bgp.

Well, bgpd has no problem handing out a full route table to many clients.
If these are co-lo servers, wouldn't you just want to have one 'network inet
static set { blah }' line and then add the 50K routes as static routes in the
kernel?

Thanks for the replies so far. bgpd can handle full tables. This means that
as of today ~251K prefixes demonstrably work but most of these are from
peers (iBGP or eBGP) I'm interested in known limitations/expected gotchas on
locally originating 50k prefixes.50K lines of

Plenty of people, including myself, are using bgpd to manage full route tables
(> 230K routes, or even more these days) from multiple providers and/or to
multiple customers and have been for years. Some people are using it at
exchange points with dozens or hundreds of peers. At close to 5 year
