Worth Reading: Is IPv6 Faster Than IPv4? |

In a recent blog post, Donal O Duibhir claims IPv6 is faster than IPv4... 39% of the time, which at a quick glance makes as much sense as "60% of the time it works every time". The real reason for his claim is that there was no difference between IPv4 and IPv6 in ~30% of the measurements.
Unfortunately he measured only the Wi-Fi part of the connection (until the first-hop gateway); I hope he'll keep going and measure response times from well-connected dual-stack sites like Google's public DNS servers.
