Ansuz Posted May 4, 2005 CID Share Posted May 4, 2005 Heads up: The Google Accelerator is either skewing the results at testmy.net, or else Earthlink uncapped my 768 DL DSL line in a big way (doubtful).... This will probably screw up the average statistics... :::..

Ansuz Posted May 5, 2005 Author CID Share Posted May 5, 2005 I wa just giving a heads up. I personally value the averages for the host, and extremely inaccurate results (whatever the cause) will skew the results for everyone..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
php Posted May 5, 2005 CID Share Posted May 5, 2005 welcome to the forum i think that its a cached test... it shouldnt mess up the average much, if at all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA3LE Posted May 5, 2005 CID Share Posted May 5, 2005 I am contacting Google about this to see if they can give me any insite as to how their program works... so I can write my script around the problem. Maybe they can add testmy.net to a don't cahce list or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansuz Posted May 5, 2005 Author CID Share Posted May 5, 2005 Thanks for the welcome I did a few more tests and they are all about the same.. I fully realize that the Google Accelerator is providing an inaccurate result, I'm just letting you guys know it's happening. The uploads aren't as drastic, but they are off as well. Adding it to the exclusion list should fix it I think...I love the site - Thanks for the excellent service ! :::..

Cool, I added a notice for now on the download test page letting people know how to disable it for this site. Hopefully whne Google gets back to me they can tell me a more automated way to get this done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
