Abstract: (AIP)
We discuss whether the behaviour of some hadronic quantities, such as the total crosssection, the ratio of the elastic to the total cross-section, are presently exhibiting the asymptotic behaviour expected at very large energies. We find phenomenological evidence that at LHC7 there is still space for further evolution.
