GIXXERGUY6 Posted December 17, 2005 CID Share Posted December 17, 2005 what is going on? I test and one minute i get 5.7, and the next i am getting 2.1-3.3, but I clear my cache and I can get 6.4, and on any other test I get good results. pcpitstop cached or non cached I get 6.1-6.6, and it never faulters. Does anyone experience this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GIXXERGUY6 Posted December 17, 2005 Author CID Share Posted December 17, 2005 shut all down and retested 5.7-5.8-6.4 without anything up opened all back up cept for the outpost and I am getting 6.4-5.7-5.8 :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 6408 Kbps about 6.4 Mbps (tested with 12160 kB) Download Speed is:: 782 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (server2) Test Time:: Sat Dec 17 00:34:39 EST 2005 Bottom Line:: 114X faster than 56K 1MB download in 1.31 sec Diagnosis: Awesome! 20% + : 90.77 % faster than the average for host (adelphia.net) I think the problem is OUTPOST is there some better settings for it or something? btw thanks for the insight. I knew all that would hog it, but it never has in the past, and it doesn't for any other testers, so i overlooked it. thanks man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FallowEarth Posted December 17, 2005 CID Share Posted December 17, 2005 It all depends on what kind of activity they're up to, and how you have them configured. Shutting them down is simply the easiest way to remove this from the equation. As for the Outpost, try deleting the logs and restarting your computer. There may be something corrupt in there. Otherwise, try turning features off one-by-one and see what most affects your speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
