Actually, the A server is the only one that's responding quickly,
viewed from my DSL line hanging off gblx:
A 26ms
B 83ms
C 308ms
D 136ms
E 248ms
F 96ms
An acquaintance at LinkedIn tells me that they're seeing the same issue.
Doing a traceroute to the C server, it looks pretty snappy as far as
London, then slow as soon as it's in Afrinic's network. I think it's
usually faster than that. For the E server, the link between HE in
California and Australia seems slow.
R's,
