I thought it was bum slow here too, in fact when the time warner guy finally "nailed me" with an introductory offer too good to pass up, *this* forum was one that came to mind, and I had to laugh, thinking "ohh great, I'll have all the bandwidth in the world and will still watch trains mag "load" at 33.6K"........ <br /> <br />Not so, however the loading times really snapped up when I bought into the fatter pipe on my end, maybe I'm hogging up your bandwith, without knowing it?? ;-) <br /> <br />Seriously, local ISP's, even DDL ISP's play some strange games in apportioning the bandwidth they have to offer to their customer base, especially as their subscribed customer base gets healty size. <br /> <br />If you are at all familiar with the concept of CPU "timeslice" then you know full well what I'm getting at. <br /> <br />I don't think it is Kalmbach's fault in this instance, I really don't. <br /> <br />Of course if the ed cares to divulge the hardware capacity at their end, it could clear this up once and for all, and my bet is they come out reasonably clean on this one. <br /> <br />Have you tried one of those "web tach" type utilities on your routing to Kalmbach's servers? You might be very suppppprised to find where the bottleneck really is (fwiw)
