Greg,

But I don't see any difference in power consumption when prefixes are 
carried in new fancy mapping scheme, when routers get some routes with 
on demand caching  or if they are carried in a new instance of BGP.

Intra-domain the problem is solved today. Core P routers do not need to 
keep any routes other then routes to next hops when any form of 
tunneling is used. And this is deployed today in many networks. 
Inter-domain can be addressed in very same way.

Cheers,
R.
