Let's check relevancy of known hits:

grep -e '208.254.40' -e '208.254.42' 208 | tee 208hits

Output:

208.254.40.95	1355564700	unreachable
208.254.40.95	1355622300	unreachable
208.254.40.96	1334537100	alive, 36342
208.254.40.96	1335269700	alive, 17586

..

208.254.40.127	1355562900	alive, 35023
208.254.40.127	1355593500	alive, 59866

208.254.40.128	1336596300	unreachable

The rest of 208 is mostly unreachable.

Let's try with 66. First there way too much data, 9 GB, let's cut it down:

n=66
time awk '$3~/^alive,/ { print $1 }' $n | uniq -c | sed -r 's/^ +//;s/ /,/' | tee $n-up-uniq-c

OK down to 45 MB, now we can work.

grep -e '66.45.179' -e '66.104.169' -e '66.104.173' -e '66.104.175' -e '66.175.106' '66-alive-uniq-c' | tee 66hits

Nah, it's full of holes:

4,66.45.179.187
12,66.45.179.188
2,66.45.179.197
1,66.45.179.202
2,66.45.179.205
2,66.45.179.206
1,66.45.179.207

won't be able to find new ranges here.
