Yes, seen that before. :-)

You can even point out to your transit providers that you should be 
getting lower RTTs in v4 (at least as good as v6 RTTs) by showing them 
your IPv6's RTTs to the same destination, jointly with the different 
paths v4/v6 packets are sent...

In my example, the difference was about 15%, but it was solved and it's 
now zero.
