Well, um, I used to be able to download pr0n at 400KB/s before the
comcast 4megabit speed for a good solid year and a half, and now since
the upgrade my speeds seem to be limited to ~200KB/s. Nothing else on
my end has changed, and also since my pingtimes have been consistently
around 30-50ms to the giganews server since I got the internet
connection, plus I am only about 10 hops away I am pretty sure it is
not a bottleneck somewhere out of my control.
