I can confirm full IPV6 connectivity from HE.

How can you confirm that when HE just admitted to be lacking IPv6 routes
from Cogent and a couple of other players?

Anyone know roughly the current default-free routing table size for IPv6?

http://www.sixxs.net/tools/grh/status/

3668 good/required prefixes
Minimum of 271 prefixes (-3397)
Average of 5322 prefixes (+1654)
Maximum of 5917 prefixes (+2249)

As you can see, some folks seem to carry HALF of the table EXTRA than
they need.... let alone that poor ISP which is carrying almost 2/3s
more, I don't have time to check into it, but I wonder how much junk is
in there....

Or, who holds the record for the largest IPv6 routing table at this point?

Having more routes does not mean that the routes are useful... far from
actually...

Greets,
