Thank you all for your insightful responses (please keep them coming). On Sat, Jan 18, 2014 at 9:51 PM, Mark Tinka <mark.tinka () seacom mu> wrote:
It could (as a function of raw traffic). What's the concern, unless we misunderstand?
Was just trying to get more info from large networks about whether how some of the things that make theoretical logical sense actually work out in practice that way e.g. whether fixed header size and the fewer headers required to decode to read an IPv6 packet (with respect to IPv4) really may provide some signifiant performance advantages. I do realise that question might be difficult to prove on a real network that runs dual stack. Since the existence of IPv4 on both control and data planes may have consequences that we don't immediately understand. -- Mukom Akong T. http://about.me/perfexcellence | twitter: @perfexcellent ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ “When you work, you are the FLUTE through whose lungs the whispering of the hours turns to MUSIC" - Kahlil Gibran -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
