We saw a couple of sudden spikes in v6 usage today, one at about 1415 EDT and another at 1450-1500, and I was wondering whether they might have been Chrome updates being pushed out. Anybody see anything similar on their graphs?

Penn saw a definite spike at 4:15pm EDT (and a few smaller bumps
in the vicinity):

Haven't investigated what it was.
