Exciting times.
 From the Azureus changelog for v3.0.2.0, August 20 2007:
- Core | IPv6 support - dht, version server, tracker and improved transport This corresponds with at least one 6to4 relay's increase in traffic. (only up about 1kbit/s, but it's about 2-3 times what it was before.

I also saw a slight increasae in traffic on 2007/08/20.  It's more
noticeable in the pps graph than the bits/s.  This relay
(AS33437/AS29748) currently averages about 1mbit/s.

OK.

As you'll note from my stats from my packet traces, very few would have come through a relay, as most are 6to4, so it's difficult to tell how much this has increased 6to4 traffic between end sites.

Though, I'm going to have a look at the code and attempt to figure out if it has some way of optimising things to prefer 6to4 if it is on 6to4 itself, etc. (I am on 6to4 myself, so if there is a preference like that, it would explain the higher amount of 6to4 vs. other).
