ipad on home network:

test a: ipv6, followed by ipv6
test b: ipv6, followed by ipv6

os/x 10.7.4 on office network:

test a: ipv6, followed by ipv6
test b: ipv4, followed by ipv6

both networks have native v6.  Latency on v6 is 23ms less on my home
network than the office network (ipv6 == wireless uplink; ipv4 is DSL with
interleaving enabled), which probably explains why the ipad picked up v6
first.  Latency on the office network is the same, as they're both on dsl.
