I quote from thepiratebay.org home page:
IPv4 21.613.113 peers (10.992.697 seeders + 10.620.416 leechers) in 1.969.865 torrents on tracker. IPv6 210.410 peers (115.584 seeders + 94.826 leechers) in 174.895 torrents on tracker.
Most numbers are about 1%, and about 9% of torrents contain one or more IPv6-capable peers. Ooh aah.
You do have to understand that IPv6 support was available in BitTorrent clients for a long time, but then the Pirate Bay deployed trackers (servers) that were incompatible with the existing clients, so only people who both have IPv6 and a recent IPv6-capable client are in those numbers. I had to null-route the PB IPv6 address to get my old client to work again over IPv4...
Another example of how NOT to migrate from old stuff to new stuff. _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
