I can’t compare from Colorado, but as a comparison it takes 2-4 seconds to
download 4knam conus nest from my amazon ec2 box in Virginia.. I’m setting up a
push / pull there for GFS later today when I’m back in the office and can
compare that if you like :)

Patrick,
So from the looks of your screen grab that is 7 minutes to download the 0.25
GFS from our FTP server. Do you have ideas of how slow that is compared to
normal from Colorado? I will be passing this information on to our IT folks.

All,
Something bigger than just CONDUIT users occurred on the 19th. We had numerous
users of other servers complain of similar drops in transfer rates. A few of
them were also able to move downloads to a new location where speeds were
normal. We believe that this issue was outside of NCEP due to that reasoning.
Having said that though, is anyone still seeing abnormal rates?
Hi Carissa :)

Notice that since our colo is directly on the Hurricane Electric backbone,
there are only a few hops to get to the ncep server, and pings only jump once
they reach gigapop.
Here is a screen cap of current download speeds for 0.25deg gfs from the ncep
server to our colo:

In order to ensure proper delivery, we have setup a push / pull from our amazon
box to the colo, but most people probably won’t have that flexibility.. The
issue appears to potentially be related to packetfiltering and / or redirection
/ funneling via certain routes, but that’s just a guess :)
Happy Monday :)
Cheers,
