Apolyton is running just fine for me. Everything except the images. But that is bearable!
Good work admins.

The speed's fine. I have acceptable ping, and the actual text pages load the same as always.
The only thing that gets slowed up is waiting for the images to start loading, which leads me to believe the CPU/RAM is a bottleneck since VBB actually treats all attachments as PHP files and has to parse them all to send them out with correct content headers. Seems like a really inefficient method to me...
I seriously doubt transfer speed is the problem, since once the files in the Civ3 file forum start downloading they go fast (118KB/s).

Hmm, strange, it will only give one result then stop.

Trace complete.
A few times, there were much higher readings for hop 11 (mid 800's) - UK to Greece, but the above was typical at about 11AM EST.
Clearly there is a significant difference between the points on either side of the Atlantic, which would explain the general upbeat tone of the European posters. Nothing in these numbers particular jumps out at me though, except a generally mediocre speed, presumably not a function of Poly.
My problematic Poly experience is that there is a long pause before the (respectable speed) delivery of data seems to start. That suggests to me that either there is a delay while the Apolyton servers gather themselves to reply or that there is a lot of separate brief chatterings back and forth initializing the contact which require many sequential round trips before anything substantial begins, thus multiplying and exagerating the seemingly not-that-terrible extra times.
