Hi Kaj, Benchmarking is always useful, but sometimes comparing may be a bit difficult. On Tue, 16 Apr 2024 at 18:27, Kaj Niemi <kajtzu@basen.net> wrote:

APNIC and LACNIC has National Internet Registries that handle members in their countries which makes comparison difficult. ARIN has recently changed their membership structure to include the equivalent of our End Users and individual ASN holders. They have also removed the distinction between PI and PA. If the RIPE NCC did the same, we would more than double the number of members and bring the average to less than 1k/member. -- Sincerely, Hans Petter Holen Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer RIPE NCC
