Okay, since this is brought up every once in a while, and a lot of stuff for various users is hosted on wootest.net, I thought I might as well do a survey. To fill out, quote this post and enter answers below each question.

If you go to http://i.am.a.wootest.net, does it load?
If Yes:
- Do files off of wootest.net take time to load for you?

- If yes, do they regularly load slow, and is there a difference between multiple locations with similar real connection speed?

If No:
(If you have set your hosts file to resolve wootest.net to another IP, unset it temporarily while performing these tests.)
Open the command prompt or terminal application on your system - (Start, Run, "command" in Windows or opening an application called something similar to "xterm" or "Terminal" or being in the shell in UNIX variants (Linux, Mac OS X)) - and perform these tests.

- Please "ping" wootest.net and paste the four first results here. The command in both Windows and UNIX variants (Linux, Mac OS X) is ping wootest.net. In UNIX variants, you'll need to hit Ctrl+Z to stop the ping program.

- Please do a "trace route" on wootest.net and paste the result here. In Windows, use the command tracert wootest.net. In UNIX variants, use traceroute wootest.net.



This information will be very helpful to me. The connection as of today could be a lot faster, and in fact a newer connection will be installed around week 30. (The current week number.)

Yes it does load. And pretty fast too. Heck I even checked both in IE and Firefox (and I had no cache in IE!).

Ping was around 33 ms. Lowest ping I have seen in long time. (yes I know it wasn't needed but heh, couldn't resist )

I test in school tomorrow. If you want test from other locations... But I doubt there will be any diffrence.

Your layout made this thread take ages to load. Does this answer the question?
And yes, the site loads. Slow as hell.

Not bad for dialup. Actual page [text] loaded in <3 secs. Not bad.

Talk about shooting yourself in the foot. I can potentially help performance if you want to do one minute of work and paste the test results. What do you choose? To not do it. Smart.

My school network's DNS server could never get your server... either that, or its DNS cache never releases (or only does once per month)... no idea which.

Ping results:
178ms
187ms
timeout
177ms

a second set provided:
730ms
217ms
194ms
198ms

using 256 bytes (from default 32):
667ms
181ms
237ms
191ms

I think the results are showing that 3 out of every 4 times, it either takes longer or times out.

*goes to http://i.am.a.wootest.net*
Loads fine and fast ...

*refreshes a few times*
Usually loads within 1 second, but sometimes it takes a few seconds (and I've seen it randomly time out before) ...

*tries ping*
125, 125, 125, 126, 129, 126, 141, 125, 127, 125, 126, 124, 131, 124, 133, 126

Quite stable right now I'll have to try again later just to be sure ...

Sounds good so far. Not as many are having problems as I thought. It sounds like I could use a better DNS though.

Additional food for thought: 143 ms is the lower limit for a signal to go halfway around the world and back. This is constrained by the speed of light. In contrast, some of the times are very good (but could still use improvement). Keep up the good work!

Yep, higher (and more varied) pings this time, and the site is much slower (but still loads) ...

That's the unstability I'm more used to, but it was perfect when I tried it yesterday

if it can go halfway around the world, and back, doesn't that make two halfs? making a whole?


and my board seems to be running a lot smoother now, and images seem to be loading faster. or it could just be me.

Yeah, Jesper, your server is kinda funky for me.

Sometimes it's fast, great, no problems
But other times it's slow and timeouty.

I went just now, and it took 21 seconds for the site to load. It DOES load, but it hangs on one image sometimes for a few seconds.

I'll do the ping test for your info: (elapsed time since the page load: about 4 minutes.)
Ping: wootest.net -- 32 bytes
Time: 135ms, 135ms, 136ms, 136ms
TTL: 111 (all four times)

Just for curiosity, what do you suppose is making your server slow (at times)?

Edit:
I'm in the USA if that modifies the expectation.
