So it goes from a few hundred MB's to a few GBs? What's the big deal. Given
a trivial CustomerDB, in an RDBMS, it's still under 100 GB for a few
million IPs. 150 GB of RAID5 is still less than $30KUS and dropping daily,
even on HP (High Priced <grin>) equipment.

It seemed to be a lot, to me. Of course, if you had every single IPv4
address SWIP'd, that'd be 4,294,967,296 records multiplied by the size
of the record, but not every IP is going to be SWIP'd.

I don't know what it would require in terms of human processing time, if
any.
