3.2 mbit

Dieren, The Netherlands

Over a year ago I wrote about my upgraded internet connection. Today I was wondering why I could download with more than 300kb/sec on a 2 megabit line. It seems that my provider, XS4All , upgraded the line to 3.2 megabit without telling me. Nice! Now the only sad thing is that this is the line at my parents place - where I don't usually live :-I

Always nice to get such suprises ;-) To bad you can't use it on regular bases.

/me pats his 8 megabit ADSL2 connection

Tho I have to admit I see no real change from when I'm surfing on a 1 megabit connection and 8 megabit :P

We'll see if my upcoming 12 megabit ADSL2 connection will change that.

If you were wondering whether the www.php.net & downloads.php.net services weren't responding very well in the last 6 hours — thousands of requests/sec to https://www.php.net/ 's root.
The server's load was 720, didn't die, but CDN connections to it timed out.
Now there is a caching strategy in place for a selected set of resources.

I just made and ate, a bowl full of bacon fried Brussels Sprouts. Not under duress, and out of my own free will.
