Why is the "Current Score" on server Up/Down time so sensitive for IPv6 servers? Today I did some maintenance work on my server and did a few reboots. When I look at the stats on my server, the IPv4 shows a score of 19.9 and doesn't appear to have really been impacted, whereas the IPv6 shows a score of -8.4. The v6 chart looks like it fell off a cliff this morning right when I started. But the v4 didn't move a lick. Any reason for this? Is it just a matter of polling? Are v4 servers polled less than v6 servers?
From my observations, IPv6 servers seem to be polled twice as often as IPv4 servers. This means they are much more sensitive to outages, but the score also recovers more quickly once they've come back.
