What's your primary configuration ?  Hub, end user system ?

the main smtp receiver and sender for  maybe 100 users and a few
dozen mailing list of small to lower middle class size.

Care to share the methodology ? I can run some stats, but want
to be sure we're comparing the same thing :)

hold your nose

zgrep '<=.*\[....:' /var/spool/exim/log/main* | wc
zgrep '<=' /var/spool/exim/log/main* | wc

and the ever failthful bc :)

Similar footprint, and I have something like the following on puck:

puck:~$ grep IPv6: /var/log/maillog | grep stat=Sent | wc -l
9043
puck:~$   grep stat=Sent /var/log/maillog | wc -l
110343

If gmail were to host AAAA for their MX I would see a lot more mail delivered over there.
