What do you mean by "algorithm"? Do you mean the implementation
of the data-structure used to perform lookups?
We had two data structures for our main routing table lookup
implementation in ipv4, this was a mistake. We spent the next couple
years maintaining two pieces of code, and finally investing lots of
effort to eliminate the older code.
