In Conepuppy's defense, LOOK at the size of the file that was supplied. It is 55 Megs in size compared to some of the other files tested that were only 0.2 megs in size.

All Brother Bilo is trying to point out is the difference in DOWNLOAD speeds using a CDN as opposed to downloading from your server. He is not trying to show the difference in hosts. The only way you could compare hosts if if everyone used the exact same sized file.

Before you start comparing hosts in this thread, make sure you are looking at the file size submitted to Brother Bilo for testing.

Also, with a CDN, the larger the file you put on a CDN, the more of a performance gain you will see.
