How about upload speeds to many locations?
I left Buffalo first of the year, never looked back. A Black Friday special got me and got me for a whole month of service so I split after Buffalo would randomly crap out 2-5am
Haven't tested it yet tbh :-).
Definitely, they oversell their network a lot.
jbiloh was taking network graphs on here in the past regarding this reoccurring issue
Yeah, I hope they'll improve more. We've renewed the server but we expect them to take care of their own network.
They most likely have overloaded switches. Could be a reason why some have better connection speeds while others are complete crap or the NIC's are going bad.
Yes, precisely what I'm thinking... We'll see how it goes.
@MrGeneral Network looks much better now compared to a few weeks ago:
Thank you very much! We have renewed the server but did let them know that we'd only renew it if the network improves, and that happened. Until now the network has been much better and we're looking forward to stick with CC.
As for the IO speed, try ioping -RD ./
You'll see close to 10k IOPS! :-)
That benchmark was extremely painful to do... meh
Dedicated box and dedicated 1Gbit in Buffalo, NY
Thank you very much! I've got better speeds for now, let's hope it keeps that way
Dedicated 1Gbit? Then the crime is much worse...
I've got the idea to do a
service network restart
and oh surprise...Offshore speeds is still crap but it's much better all around...
Don't know why this resolved the low speeds tho
Muuuuuch better! :-)
Indeed, at least we're now getting better speeds!
Slightly offtopic but does anyone know at what speed the CC rate limiting kicks in?
Looks like I have to limit network port when doing large uploads
I'd love to know that as well!
Sent you a PM
Thanks! Extremely useful!
It seems CC doesn't let my reseller hand me a direct account so I can help them fixing their own network.
I'm considering to leave.
Just do it and don't look back.
Considering that, but I'll have a talk with them first.
Glad you're getting better speeds.
Sometimes. Right now, not so better speeds. I was denied from having a direct account to CC, to investigate this further. Is there anything you can do?
Colocrossing seems good at the mo;
