@WilliamHilsum I wonder if others have got their post, still none here. Perhaps tomorrow morning...

William Hilsum

@TomWijsman Maybe yours went the other way around the world!

Tom Wijsman

@sidran32 Yeah, sometimes it stays on a location for some time and the other time it suddenly makes a lot of progress.

William Hilsum

@TomWijsman Do you have a second to talk / are you busy?

Tom Wijsman

@WilliamHilsum Well, if they were in separate batches, it could've been before and after the weekend so I think it'll arrive tomorrow.

William Hilsum

@TomWijsman Good luck!

@WilliamHilsum Depends...

I was just wondering, when you are at university or where you have the big internet pipe, what speeds were you getting, especially on speed test? ... I have a problem at work I have to solve... find the perfect PC hardware!!! ... Basically, we just can't find equipment that can keep up with high speeds :/

even Ookla/speedtest.net only has about 400meg or so upload/download speed spare, so, we license a speedtest server from them and run it ourselves (accessible from within our network), but, that isn't perfect (guessing because of flash rather than anything more scientific).

Tom Wijsman

@WilliamHilsum I think you can see both results if you look for speedtest in the chat transcript.

William Hilsum

Will try to look now, thanks

Tom Wijsman

It's not perfectly the announced theoretical speed, but rather like a few percent less on cable, a few more less on wireless.

William Hilsum

Hmm... Didn't you have one that was over 100?

So might be because of Flash (isn't that interpreted anyway?)
