But by the time we run out of IPv4 to allocate, the IPv6 network will not have completed to dual stack the current 
IPv4 network. So what will happen?


Reality is that as soon as SSL web servers and SSL-capable web browsers
have support for name-based virtual hosts, the number of IPv4 addresses
required will drop.  Right now, you need 1 IP address for 1 SSL site;
SNI spec of SSL gets rid of that.

my load balancer needs 16 ips for every million simultaneous 
connections, so does yours.


I'm pretty sure that's not the case for inbound connections...
