if you want v6 adoption... latency, path length, jitter, performance all should closely match v4 specs. Expecting a US customer to be 'ok' with 300ms to reach a US site 30 miles (as the crow flies) via Germany... not good. V6 so far doesn't have the same $$ and interest from the 'user' so it's not being optomized yet. Or so it seems.
Until the peering topology of v6 matches v4, we will continue to see this issue. I expect to wait until the last minute when the NSP's suddenly realize that they need to switch, and as my dual stack peerings increase, so will the QOS. At that point, the content providers will add AAAA and the eyeball networks will have the worst of it. M$ seems to be coming along fine with IPv6, but the problem we'll see is all those modems/routers which do not support it and probably can't with the minimal flash space they have. I haven't even seen good alternatives yet to start pushing my customers into IPv6 routers.
