OpenMrs beyond IPV4

I don't know if any one within the community has ever deployed openmrs in an IPV6 environment. In the past two weeks I have been introducing a friend who works with a voluntary organization managing HIV infected persons. The organization is running its network 100% on IPV6.
I am not sure what kind of challenges I might face when we eventually implement at the organization, I would expect may be to have reduced performance due to the larger address space
in IPV6 compared to IPV4 and maybe one may need to upgrade memory and processor specs.

I will be posting my experience in coming weeks.
