Jef Spaleta estimated the total number of Fedora clients to be 16 million in May 2009. If the non-smolt-corrected number is now 22 million, Fedora has had a nearly 40 % increase in installed base over the past year. That doesn't seem quite realistic.

I may not have understood the yum method correctly, but as far as I can tell, the IPs are only unique per release version. I.e. if I install F12 on a system with a static IP, do updates, then wipe it and install F13 instead and do updates to that, my IP gets counted as unique in both the F12 and the F13 number. Thus the total across releases is not really the number of unique IPs.

Jef Spaleta estimated the total number of Fedora clients to be 16 million in May 2009. If the non-smolt-corrected number is now 22 million, Fedora has had a nearly 40 % increase in installed base over the past year. That doesn't seem quite realistic.
