    please click a test and report how long the timer says it takes to complete. if you'd like to run it a few times to get a consistent number that'd be great, just hit CTRL-F5 to re-run it.

    test one = 284kb
    ---> http://aussieexotics.com/speedtest/speedtest-284.html

    test two = 1,120kb
    ---> http://aussieexotics.com/speedtest/speedtest-1120.html
    (this has some of the same pics as the 284 test so you might have to do the CTRL-F5 refresh to get a true reading)

    test three = 1,408kb
    ---> http://aussieexotics.com/speedtest/speedtest-1408.html
    (this has a pics which shows each 100kb marked with a green line, i made this pic to get an idea of throughput speed in real time)

    the point of this is i'm having lots of problems connecting to AussieExotics.com, this happens every month or two for days at a time until i bug my (cheap) host to fix something, then i have to stuff around and fix a bunch of my code too. :(

    i'd just like to gauge how the speed of the site is for users around the world, it's predominantly useful for aussies so i'll be transferring to a local host sometime but it's very expensive here, and there's still lots of people around the planet who don't mind looking at the pics and vids.

    my results here in adelaide australia look like this (when i can actually *get* to the site :rolleyes: )

    284 = 2.4 secs
    1120 = 4.1 secs
    1408 = 12.1 secs

    be interested to hear your results.

    thanks guys, it seems the throughput speeds are adequate for the most part - good enough for what i pay - it's just the ping times and uptime that's a concern.

    that's what CTRL-F5 is for. :)

    the website is now on an aussie host, anyone care to retry the test to give me an idea how fast it is in europe and the states?

    me...
    test - before - after
    284 = 2.4 - 0.7
    1120 = 4.1 - 1.4
    1408 = 12.1 - 2.3

    I'm at work so I believe it is a T1 line to a location (our other office) 130mi away... No idea but my results aren't very good. :(
