Ping Speed results, please help

We're changing servers and are testing several ping results.

If a server has a ping result of 175ms avg. And another server 33ms. Does this per definition mean the second server is a lot better to get?

Yes. Get the second one. Faster response.

I'm trying to move away from that one, lol.

I guess that is faster since it is nearby (~40kms), whereas the other is overseas, thousands of miles away.

Yes, that would also be a factor. lol

In fact, i am trying to find out if an overseas server will 'hurt' my store's speed much, since we are only talking milliseconds here. Customers will not notice the difference between 1 or 1.001 second, would they?

Please open my eyes.

ping time + serverside processing time affects the page load speed.

Page load time for your major markets is what really matters.

what he says, ping time will help but is less important.

All times are GMT -7. The time now is 11:13 PM.
