The CBS graph show an increase of a few megabit, that won't show up in graphs at gigabit level.
Our graph is IMHO quite appropriate for an eyeball-only leaf network, as that is what we are. Even if we only have a meager 2000 customers, an *extremely* high percentage of these are IPv6-enabled (much due to a very high turnover rate, meaning new students with new capable OS's move in frequently). We are way past 50% of our users IPv6 enabled by now. So, for the eyeball side of it all, and if you are whitelisted, I would wager that the increase seen in our graph is ~quite representative of what type of impact it can have in a (even dormitory) network with high IPv6-stack ratio. Having said that, there wasn't much to see on v6 before. And most peer to peer connections still carry most data over v4. This is something I suspect 2010 might see heavy change of though. Stay alert and be prepared to relay!
So graphs and especially the public ones don't necessarely reflect reality, the only way to be 100% sure is to get to the graphs on the end points.
I'm well aware 1000-1500 IPv6 clients isn't much of a statistical base on the full Internet scale... so, more data would be interesting, including such from Google. Cheers, -- Martin Millnert <millnert@csbnet.se>
