This will probably give you the information you seek.
The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is limited to smaller network implementations due to its maximum hop count of 15, which restricts the size of the network it can effectively manage. This limitation can lead to issues with scalability and efficiency in larger networks, as it cannot accommodate more extensive routing tables or complex topologies. Additionally, RIP's convergence time is slower compared to more advanced protocols, further hindering its suitability for larger environments.
It is typical for older routing protocols of the "distance vector" type, such as RIP, or IGRP, to send out their routing tables regularly to neighbors. By default, RIP does this every 30 seconds, while IGRP does it every 90 seconds.
Dynamic routing is a networking technique that provides optimal data routing. Unlike static routing, dynamic routing enables routers to select paths according to real-time logical network layout changes. In dynamic routing, the routing protocol operating on the router is responsible for the creation, maintenance and updating of the dynamic routing table. In static routing, all these jobs are manually done by the system administrator. Dynamic routing uses multiple algorithms and protocols. The most popular are Routing Information Protocol (RIP) and Open Shortest Path First (OSPF).
Basically your convergence time is the time while your devices are learning about each other (Could be due to a problem, or a new network). So the higher the convergence time, the longer your network isn't functioning.So with a very low convergence time network a problem in the network can be solved while only losing a few pings.

They forward only changes to individual routes instead of forwarding entire routing tables., taking up less band and time. Joseph G.

Because dynamic routing saves a lot of time.
corporate convergence
The opposite of divergence is convergence, which refers to moving towards a common point or coming together. In terms of vectors or functions, convergence indicates that they are getting closer together or approaching a specific value over time or space.
Routing in a mesh network involves the process of determining the optimal paths for data packets to travel between nodes. Each node in a mesh network can act as both a router and a host, allowing for multiple pathways for data transmission, which enhances redundancy and reliability. Protocols such as AODV (Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector) and OLSR (Optimized Link State Routing) are commonly used to facilitate efficient routing by adapting to network changes dynamically. This decentralized approach enables improved performance, as data can be rerouted in real-time if a node fails or if network conditions change.
