Unfortunate, even today there are not many option of transit ISPs
who have a real native dual-stack deployment (I consider 6PE to be
native)... most have just tunnels inside. Currently I cannot think
of more than... hm... 3-4 ISPs who can deliver real amounts of
native US-EU bandwidth.

What sort of customers do these v6 SP's have for IPv6?  What demands are
there for real amounts of IPv6 bandwidth?

I've historically found that there are a number of FTP
sites that get congested on IPv4 but are accessable via IPv6 (only).

But that's an artifact... There's no reason rooted in the protocols
themselves (and associated business reasons) as to why that should be a
lasting benefit.  It's merely a reflection of poor capacity management and
idle (under utilized) IPv6 stacked server capacity..

Thanks for playing, though :)..
