To be clear; it's still a small number, but not as small as it appears
if you don't consider that it measures a very small subset of Akamai's
customers.

Sure, although I don't have much data of my own, I am not convinced
(based on that graph) that we can attribute the increase to the IPv6
test. It appears that there was actually a drop in response times just
before World IPv6 Day and that the increase may be more of a
normalization than an increase (it's still lower then it was up
through the 6th). Adding to that is the fact that the response time
has not gone back down post-test, although many of the major sites
have turned IPv6 back off.

In short, the data is inconclusive, IMHO.
