It shows order of 0.5%. Why do you think Google's numbers are lower than the real total?They are also different stats which is why they give such different numbers. In a theoretical world with evenly distributed traffic patterns if 1% of users were IPv6 enabled it would require 100% of content to be IPv6 enabled before your traffic stats would show 1% of traffic going over IPv6. If these figures are representative (google saying 1% of users and AMSIX saying 0.5% of traffic) then it would indicate that dual stacked users can push ~50% of their traffic over IPv6. If this is even close to reality then that would be quite an achievement.
There is even more complexity. Remember the 6-to-4 stuff? Suppose a user on Network A used a tunnel broker on HE, and his traffic passed over AMS-IX encapsulated in v4? He would show up as v4 to AMS-IX and v6 to Google. Lies, damned lies, and graphs. :) -- TTFN, patrick
