I had to download the Flex SDK for work today and when I saw the file size I thought I can take some time to get coffee and a smoking break but I was wrong. I am not making it a big deal but I guess home users in Malaysia has never experienced this before.

The 118MB file was downloaded in less than a minute!

Oh yes, the file is downloaded to a server in the HQ in Massachusetts.

How I wish I get that at home! I am wondering whether US homes also get the same kind of speed. My dear US readers could you please shed some light upon us?

    am wondering, if transfer rate 2.59 MB/sec what is the published/advertised rate looks like?

    streamyx: advertised = 1M , real is like 70kB/s

    Well to have 2.59MBps we need at least a 21Mbps pipe. Perhaps we have a 25-30Mbps pipe over there. Who knows.
