Here is a running system -- two full tables, and a about a dozen other 
peers from an IX:

Mem: 451M Active, 1314M Inact, 7841M Wired, 21G Free
ARC: 2744M Total, 923M MFU, 1048M MRU, 32K Anon, 63M Header, 710M Other
      956M Compressed, 2787M Uncompressed, 2.92:1 Ratio
Swap: 4096M Total, 4096M Free

FreeBSD 12.1-STABLE running frr 7.1

Hope that helps.
