Netnumbers to regions?  FTS I think.  I'm not totally sure.  Once in a
while it comes up.

True, but the discussion was on the overall design system that has been
used, not the actual size.

VD>near 4500 sysops, in middle - 100 nodes per region.

Well, I'd start thinking small and work around as needed.  I'd tend to
start with 10 if starting a new Z7.  There will be enough trouble just
splitting that way.  Sees more 'do-able' to me looking in from the
outside and considering the task.
