Large communities indicating RPKI VALID status

Hi all,

I was busy reading 
https://bgpfilterguide.nlnog.net/guides/reject_invalids/ and noticed the 
following text...

Note: REALLY DONT store the validation state inside a bgp_community or 
bgp_large_community or bgp_ext_community variables. It can cause CPU & 
memory overload resulting in convergence performance issues.

I was wondering if this is still an issue and if it would still be a bad 
idea to indicate that RPKI was VALID using communities on multiple full 
BGP feeds?

Is anyone doing this at present? are you seeing significant load?

Kind Regards
Nigel
