TriRan Posted February 8, 2012 CID Share Posted February 8, 2012 CA3LE not sure if you've already thought of this or if it's already implemented but you should have the persons first visit here auto detect which server is closest to them and test from that just a thought ~ Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA3LE Posted February 8, 2012 CID Share Posted February 8, 2012 I'm still debating in my head about that... I really want the main server to remain the benchmark. I'm nowhere near that server and I'm able to get a great, stable connection. Other people should too, as long as their providers are delivering what they say they are. The mirrors, are there to provide alternate locations to make sure routing to the main server isn't an issue. ... this just gave me an idea. I'll get back with you on that...

news4la Posted February 11, 2012 CID Share Posted February 11, 2012 I wanted to speak about the choices. I like the choices. Some times because of a routing problem. I am not able to get a good read from Dallas. It has nothing to do with the server. When I find that I use DC and it usually winds up what I am expecting. The same for Seattle since I am on the west coast. It gives me alternatives to show me that something is going on. Dallas seems to give me slower reads. I did Tracerouts of it. It shows I have lousy routing from here to Dallas. Therefore slower reads. I don't seem to have that with D C or Seattle. My Pings are better to them and my jitter is better to them.
