Any info? (have I missed something? :) Two weeks ago, when I last looked (via snmp) the usage of the link comming from the USA was 100%, so it is probably queing delays making things slow. Mean while, the link in the other direction was at about 50%. Don't discount solar effects either, there was a post a little while ago, pitty I can't remember the dates. If anyone can have a guess, how effective has archie.au been in reducing usage on the link? Paul Miach.
