Tables can be of any size. We are running RMON probe simulations containing tables with more than 10,000 entries. Currently, static tables are simulated, ie. the size of the table does not change.
The above is from the HP Network Node Manager. Here is the same graph as generated by Agilent NetMetrix.
Here is a size distribution graph created by querying the etherStatsTable.
Which we can manipulate at run-time. For example, here we have artificially changed the rates to multiples of 100 / sec in ascending order.
Here is a host traffic distribution graph from a hostTable simulation. Notice we are only showing 10 out of 200+ entries in the table.
