Re: Tortoise and Hare, or Trail of Beers

I would be it's something to do with your end of the network. I have a terrible connection to PM from my work machine (going through WAN and proxy server), but my home machines load up lickity split. You could always do some ping, traceroute tests to see if you can find out where the bottleneck really is.

I'd say it looks relatively quick, with few hops... I'm beginning to think it's a problem is server-side... perhaps the speed of mod_perl or the database. # traceroute perlmonks.org traceroute to perlmonks.org (206.170.14.76), 30 hops max, 38 byte pack +ets 1 10.1.104.1 (10.1.104.1) 1.685 ms 1.406 ms 1.427 ms 2 sl1 (208.23.213.1) 6.966 ms 1.493 ms 6.799 ms 3 sl-gw13-sea-5-0-0-TS14.sprintlink.net (160.81.44.49) 9.257 ms 3. +381 ms 3.222 ms 4 sl-bb10-sea-1-2.sprintlink.net (144.232.6.1) 3.509 ms 3.303 ms +2.854 ms 5 sl-bb20-tac-9-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.18.41) 4.002 ms 4.191 ms + 4.047 ms 6 sl-bb20-sj-5-2.sprintlink.net (144.232.9.213) 27.155 m +s 22.249 ms 22.188 ms 7 sl-bb20-sj-8-2.sprintlink.net (144.232.3.146) 21.957 ms 22.663 m +s 21.801 ms 8 sl-sbcnetsrvc-4-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.217.30) 23.427 ms 22.2 +93 ms 22.335 ms 9 edge2-p6-0.snfc21.pbi.net (63.203.35.1) 23.397 ms 23.167 ms 23. +299 ms 10 ded1-fa12-0-0.snfc21.pbi.net (209.232.130.69) 24.067 ms 24.319 m +s 24.006 ms 11 vip-Union-Partners-Network.cust-rtr.pacbell.net (209.232.138.214) + 24.619 ms 27.099 ms 24.236 ms 12 union-3.upn.net (208.44.192.1) 24.478 ms 24.926 ms 24.572 ms 13 yoda.blockstackers.com (206.170.14.76) 23.753 ms 24.694 ms 24.2 +72 ms [download]	[reply] [d/l]

I usually load pretty quickly. If your home machine loads quickly as well, probably isnt PM server problems. It points more towards local networks or local-side issues.	[reply]
