Well, putting on my ISP network admin hat, if a customer came to us and
said they saw a drop from 10+ megabits to 2 megabits in downloads when a
remote site moved, I'd say the remote site needs to talk with their new
provider.  There's no good reason for that to happen between well
connected networks (barring one end or the other being congested, which
doesn't appear to be the case here).

I'm curious to see the results of the Red Hat site move this weekend; I
don't expect to always get the 57 megabits I got on a DVD download test
this week, but if that also drops to the 2 megabits range, I'll be a
disappointed Red Hat customer.

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
