[20:45] * RandalSchwartz is happy to be back in the land of the megabit-or-better nets [21:14] *** pc500 has joined #arpnetworks [21:14] up_the_irons - you there? [21:18] is it an emergency? [21:18] or maybe something we can help with? [21:20] * RandalSchwartz bets pc500 isn't paying attention now [21:24] Nope, not an emergency, but I'll definately need someone who works for arp networks. [21:24] how so? [21:24] did you already send a message to support@ ? [21:25] nope. I could do that I suppose. [21:25] that's really all you can do, unless it's something you can do yourself with help [21:25] in which case, we can help here. [21:25] and mail to support@ is answered usually in one or two days [21:26] that's the way this works [21:26] as in, try not to create emergencies for ARP [21:26] since that's not why they are there. [21:27] ARP provides a very reliable infrastructure with reasonable response times [21:27] everything else, you're expected to handle on your own [21:27] Neh, it's poor UDP-based vpn performance, there's some traffic policer in there causing it I'm sure. I'll send it off to them. It's positively a non-emergency, but hey, you never know if someone will be here. :) [21:28] uh - ARP does no policing [21:28] but there have been some recent reports of bad clients causing us the rest a bit of pain [21:28] ARP is looking into trying to fix some of that [21:28] idiots getting on IRC nets then pissing others off [21:29] as a cheap provider, ARP gets a few of those [21:29] Unfortunately, comes with the hosting business if you're not priced out of that market... [21:29] so your problem is definitely not ARP throttling, but rather ARP not kicking off bad customers soon enough [21:30] and this, they are fully aware, and are working on it [21:30] maybe the case. I'll send a note :) [21:30] your requests won't make it happen faster. :) [21:30] no, wait, seriously, you think ARP is filtering or throttling you? [21:30] if so, you're already mis-tracked. [21:31] the biggest problem ARP has is that they do *nothing* like that [21:31] It's poor performance, so I'll send that off and see what they come back with. [21:31] You also realize you're in a VPS? :) [21:31] yup [21:31] what OS? [21:31] but it's been a good to me vps :) [21:32] so it's a recent problem? [21:32] and quite frankly, performs nicely. (benchmarked next to some quad-core xeon servers I had). [21:32] * RandalSchwartz waits [21:38] ahh - so you're not going to answer either question [21:38] nevermind then [21:39] * RandalSchwartz writes off pc500 as not worth helping [21:40] *** pc500 has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [21:40] *** pc500 has joined #arpnetworks [21:51] pc500, you know it may be your isp right? [21:51] what with utorrent using UDP etc now days [21:52] i'd suggest trying iperf in udp mode see if there's any packet loss [21:57] like on receiver run "iperf -s -u", sender run "iperf -c -b 1m", open port 5001 frmo source ip on firewall, and then it'll send 1 megabit/sec for 10 seconds and give you a report back afterwards of jitter, packet loss, and out of order packets [22:59] *** fink has joined #arpnetworks [23:00] *** fink has quit IRC (Client Quit)
