    My word! My speed's fine, but it takes 4 hops just to get out of Cambridge!

      Yes, and it has todo with mime difficulties.

        Im 24 hops away from 'poly.

        Dial-up around here is shocking tho from all the rain, so all internet is slow for me.
        I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

          A few times, there were much higher readings for hop 11 (mid 800's) - UK to Greece, but the above was typical at about 11AM EST.

          Clearly there is a significant difference between the points on either side of the Atlantic, which would explain the general upbeat tone of the European posters. Nothing in these numbers particular jumps out at me though, except a generally mediocre speed, presumably not a function of Poly.

          My problematic Poly experience is that there is a long pause before the (respectable speed) delivery of data seems to start. That suggests to me that either there is a delay while the Apolyton servers gather themselves to reply or that there is a lot of separate brief chatterings back and forth initializing the contact which require many sequential round trips before anything substantial begins, thus multiplying and exagerating the seemingly not-that-terrible extra times.

                        The announced patch was too mush for the server. I get database errors and server busy mesages all the time.
