  Well, the type of traffic matters a lot for us here. People running our
(XS26') points of presence basically donate the bandwidth to us, and they are
ready to support higher data flows (at least up to certain degree), even though
these are still more than unusual in the today's v6 world. But we are careful
when the traffic suddenly peaks dramatically and we usually carefully examine
what's flowing through the wires - while it's ok for us to donate the bandwidth
for regular v6 traffic, we don't feel like donating our bandwidth for ICMPv6
floods.
