IPv6 now faster than IPv4 when visiting 20% of top websites – and just as fast for the rest

Re: We didn't run out of ipv4

Well, I can agree in part… do I really need a whole /64 to run a home network? As it happens, I've got use of a /56 from my ISP, and I do use a few /64s out of it.

Those /64s could easily be /48s without issues… or using DHCPv6, even smaller. But /64 is the smallest an IPv6 subnet will go, so /64 it is for those subnets.
