The routing architectures of the two are wholly identical (with perhaps v6 address allocation policies being worse). If anything, this is soley a measure of the lack of v6 deployment. In the strategic view, the v6 problem must (also?) be solved. The IAB RAWS report states that IPv6 will increase the scaling problem by at least factor 4 :-( How much worse would the current situation be if the figures on _http://bgp.potaroo.net/v6/v6rpt.html_ (http://bgp.potaroo.net/v6/v6rpt.html) were inversely related to v4 and v6 ?!
