[AFMUG] ipv4 vs ipv6 FIB size

[Eric Kuhnke]

I've been running a script for the last few months which grabs the current
size of the ipv4 and ipv6 FIBs for a full routing table, once a day, and
writes it to an RRA.

here's the results:

That chart with the green is actually drawing both v4 and v6 on the same
chart. That almost impossible to see blue line at the bottom of the chart?
That's the v6.  For comparison, a standalone v6 chart is the second image.

To wit?

Not sure if this gives credence to my frustration with the whole IPv6 
‘transition’ and lack of IPv4, or if it means IPv6 is somehow more optimal.

I’m thinking the former.

And I’m thinking it’s the CDN/content providers fault.

Let's see if we can get afrinic to release all that unused /8 space and
encourage everyone to advertise it as individual /22 to /24 pieces!

Most content is available on IPv6. I think Amazon is the extent of the big guys 
that aren't IPv6. 

It is a lot more efficient too, from a routes advertised perspective. You 
likely ever only need 1 IPv6 block. How many IPv4 blocks do you have?
