Folks with IPv6 tend to be on savvier service providers who have better performance for both IPv4 and IPv6. To find out for sure, you'd have to do an experiment where same-user-same-server connections are split between IPv4 and IPv6 and then measure the performance difference. I don't know if anyone has done that but these particular articles look like someone is just looking at the high-level metrics. Those won't hold any statistical validity because they're not actually random samples. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William Herrin b...@herrin.us https://bill.herrin.us/
