neglected route-servers

Guess what happens when you run a 7206VXR (NPE300) as a route server with 
3 full feeds?  It took me a minute to figure out why my routes that 
TWTelecom isn't supposed to see were showing up on 
route-server.twtelecom.net, but were seemingly randomly alternating 
between Network not in table and showing up.

If anyone from TWTelecom is here, it's probably time to swap out that 
NPE300 for something with more than 256MB RAM.  It's running out of RAM 
and resetting all the BGP sessions before they finish getting full routes.
