Our graph is IMHO quite appropriate for an eyeball-only leaf network, as
that is what we are.  Even if we only have a meager 2000 customers, an
*extremely* high percentage of these are IPv6-enabled (much due to a
very high turnover rate, meaning new students with new capable OS's move
in frequently). We are way past 50% of our users IPv6 enabled by now. 

So, for the eyeball side of it all, and if you are whitelisted, I would
wager that the increase seen in our graph is ~quite representative of
what type of impact it can have in a (even dormitory) network with high
IPv6-stack ratio.

Having said that, there wasn't much to see on v6 before. And most peer
to peer connections still carry most data over v4.  This is something I
suspect 2010 might see heavy change of though. Stay alert and be
prepared to relay!

I'm well aware 1000-1500 IPv6 clients isn't much of a statistical base
on the full Internet scale... so, more data would be interesting,
including such from Google.
