"And when IPv6 is in use, the median connection setup is 1.4 times faster than IPv4. This is primarily due to reduced NAT usage and improved routing."
Oh I believe IPv6 is faster but because of completely different reasons.Modern faster connections more likely have IPv6 while old low-bandwidth circuits may provide v4 only.
Some users may also use VPN which is almost always v4 only. Their VPN may do funny routing, hair-pinning and similar behavior thus impacting their performance.
