I am testing a Cogent 100mbps connection with a simple
web based speed test check.. 

Can I beg those of you on real high bandwidth connections 
various places on the 'net to run the speed test check on: 

    http://speedy.higherbandwidth.net

It logs your IP and speed.. I am trying to determine how
good this connection is. During the day it seems awfully slow
from a lot of places that I have access to. 
It also appears to block Gnutella and similar protocols. 

Any comments regarding using Cogent as an upstream
would be appreciated (in private?). This is a 'freebie'
for a few more days...
