is this a replay of Exodus vs BBN?
suppose you are a big dot com web site in an exodus data center and
you are akamaized. are you going to notice a significant slow down
in getting to PSI? I wouldn't think much....but if you aren't
akamaized what kinds of problems do you have?
Is PSI playing hardball with anyone else besides exodus?
