| up_the_irons | Sept. 10 was a quiet day... | [04:12] |
| ............................................................................................. (idle for 7h44mn) | ||
| kellytk | In what context up_the_irons? | [11:56] |
| daca | it didn't rain kellytk | [11:59] |
| kellytk | daca, I don't understand | [12:03] |

| mkb | like the entire scrollback fits on one page | [12:20] |
| kellytk | mkb, got it, thanks | [12:21] |

| mercutio | up_the_irons is the only one who spoke on my friday 11 sep, (and i suspect his thu 10 sep) | [14:46] |
| ......................... (idle for 2h3mn) | ||
| up_the_irons | mercutio: kellytk : for me, there was no scrollback at all on Sept 10. Just joins / quiets. That's what I meant by quiet. | [16:49] |
| mercutio | up_the_irons: but you spoke, and broke the silence! | [16:49] |
| up_the_irons | for me, it was sept. 11 already | [16:50] |
| mercutio | oh
right | [16:50] |

| m0unds | yea, i kept thinking my client dropped again because it was so quiet yesterday
had bad luck with 3 different freenode servers taking a dump, this one seems ok | [18:23] |

| mercutio | yeh freenode has been a bit unstable.
i got booted within the last week it's a lot more stable than it used to be though | [19:55] |
| brycec | I was on a stable server for 30ish days before the IPv6 troubles knocked me offline :( | [19:58] |
| mercutio | brycec: are you back to using ipv6?
it seems to be pretty stable now. | [20:00] |
| RandalSchwartz | I'm still using v6 for freenode | [20:03] |
| m0unds | i am too, just not from my arp vm anymore | [20:16] |
| kellytk | Estimates of when IPv6 will be as generally stable as IPv4? I think if that doesn't occur within two years it could become an issue | [20:18] |
| RandalSchwartz | what's not stable? | [20:18] |
| kellytk | I haven't migrated yet so I can only gauge others' experiences | [20:19] |
| m0unds | it's network-dependent
my home ipv6 is fine | [20:19] |
| RandalSchwartz | v6 works as long as your router doesn't advertise false v6 connectivity
and sadly, many of them do. | [20:19] |
| m0unds | what we w ere talking about was some congestion/weirdness that was happening w/arp | [20:20] |
| RandalSchwartz | there's always fine tuning... :)
O | [20:20] |
| mercutio | connection to he.net was dropping | [20:20] |
| m0unds | there are devices that have flaky/bad ipv6 support, which leads people to have to disable it (glaring at android here) | [20:20] |
| RandalSchwartz | I'm always on freenode via v6. I get dropped about once a week.
that's not bad. | [20:21] |
| kellytk | I'll be giving it a while longer yet | [20:21] |
| m0unds | i got dropped 3-4 times yesterday, just kept getting servers that were having trouble | [20:21] |
| mercutio | i think that there's a smaller number of large issues with internet these days, but more smaller issues
running peering hot seems pretty popular in the US | [20:21] |
| RandalSchwartz | what does "peering hot" mean? | [20:22] |
| kellytk | Attractive traffic shapes? | [20:22] |
| mercutio | it means they have say a 10 gigabit pipe they're trying to route 12 gigabit through
it was the network neutrality / netflix thing it often is worse in some cities than others http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2014/03/level-3-blames-internet-slowdowns-on-isps-refusal-to-upgrade-networks/ stuff like this | [20:22] |
| BryceBot | Ars Technica: "Level 3 blames Internet slowdowns on ISPs’ refusal to upgrade networks" | [20:24] |
| m0unds | heh
refusal to "upgrade networks" e.g. refusal to provide peering without $ | [20:24] |
| mercutio | well sometimes they have settlement free peering | [20:24] |
| BryceBot | That's what she said!! | [20:24] |
| mercutio | but there's a refusal to upgrade capacity | [20:25] |
| m0unds | right, without providing a good reason or money | [20:25] |
| RandalSchwartz | RandalSchwartz just finished an 1125 mile run in western and central oregon in 4 days | [20:25] |
| m0unds | i think when you're using tons of traffic like netflix, there should be some sort of agreement to cover cost
nice | [20:25] |
| RandalSchwartz | exhausted
but totally worth it | [20:25] |
| m0unds | s/using/pushing | [20:26] |
| BryceBot | <m0unds> i think when you're pushing tons of traffic like netflix, there should be some sort of agreement to cover cost | [20:26] |
| RandalSchwartz | there is absolutely nothing like crater lake | [20:26] |
| m0unds | i've never been
haven't ever been to the NW | [20:26] |
| RandalSchwartz | I think it rivals the grand canyon, except that you can take it all in at one view
and then there's 100 views like that around the rim the pure blue clear water... the volcanic rock... all amazing. | [20:26] |
| mercutio | m0unds: what about if you're pulling lots of traffic like comcast?
netflix offer local caches it seems a sensible way to go in some ways but now days you can do 10 gigabit over a single fibre. | [20:31] |
| m0unds | comcast operate an eyeball network, content providers want eyeballs for their content
they do transit too, but primarily that's to provide fat pipes for content consumption | [20:34] |
| mercutio | comcast offer cable tv
and so netflix competes with cable tv and reduces their total income available | [20:34] |
| m0unds | directv and dish network both take more customers from cable than netflix | [20:35] |
| mercutio | so if they can increase the cost of other people providing content it maeks it harder for other people to compete | [20:35] |
| m0unds | giving them way too much credit | [20:35] |
| mercutio | be it through lobbying to make it more difficult for other people to receive internet in areas they serve | [20:35] |
| m0unds | they pioneered streaming content to home, but they don't provide anywhere near a direct alternative to catv | [20:35] |
| mercutio | or making it more expensive for content providers to provide content
ahh idk, i think internet should be free :) more bandwidth, more content | [20:35] |
| m0unds | meh | [20:37] |
| mercutio | and anything that raises total bandwidth available rather than has smart caching etc reduces the cost of bandwidth
which means that it's more free the 1gig to 10 gig movement is being REALLY slow | [20:37] |
| m0unds | not on comcast's network :)
since they're already 100gig in most metros and 10gig to headend gear | [20:37] |
| mercutio | how many people have 10gbe at home though? | [20:38] |
| m0unds | nobody, not really necessary imo
just like local loop gig-e, who cares? oh look, i can get content in my metro at gigabit speeds...which amounts to nearly nothing | [20:38] |
| mercutio | that's kind of want somep eople said about gig-e 15 years ago
heh | [20:39] |
| m0unds | i can run a speed test to a local speed test server and be happy i have a gig-e pipe and no content provider to deliver at anywhere near that speed | [20:39] |
| mercutio | nz is being fast with higher speed adoption recently
but international speeds still suck and there's not much local content still, 200 megabit seems to be the new sweet spot, if being in a fibre area and it's weird, given options beetween 100 and 200 nearly everyone seems to go for 200 but now it's basically 30 down or 200 down there's low demand for in between | [20:39] |
| brycec | mercutio: I'm travelling (at vBSDcon) so not really using my home Internet besides popping online (VPN) from time to time, so I can't really say how IPv6 is working on my VPS, sorry. I'm connected right now to my VPS over IPv6 and it seems fine, but it's a very small test. | [20:41] |
| mercutio | the content providers being able to do > gbe is the current issue
like i can easily get linux packages at > 80 megabytes/sec | [20:41] |
| m0unds | vbsdcon, fun | [20:41] |
| brycec | RandalSchwartz: wow, you really ran over a thousand miles? Isn't OR only about 300mi west to east? That's about 4 trips each way across the state. | [20:41] |
| mercutio | but cdn's etc don't really push that fast normally | [20:41] |
| brycec | m0unds: so far :) | [20:41] |
| mercutio | partially because i think they're not using ssd's
or otherwise have performance limitations in their caches. but akamai, netflix etc are using 10gbe ports these days in general afaik brycec: all good brycec: it's easier to say something is broken than it's fixed :) also latency is more important than bandwidth for web browsing generally given decent bandwidth speeds s/speeds/capacity/ | [20:42] |
| BryceBot | <mercutio> also latency is more important than bandwidth for web browsing generally given decent bandwidth capacity | [20:44] |
| brycec | mercutio: very true | [20:45] |
| mercutio | but i'm all for gigabit local-loop networks
i don't think people will necessarily get gigabit that often | [20:45] |
| brycec | breakage is obvious, working is obvious, but "fixed"... | [20:45] |
| mercutio | but as long as networks are managed decently it shouldn't do any harm
i don't think gigabit is enough though :) | [20:45] |
| m0unds | that's why there are business minded types running isps, haha | [20:46] |
| mercutio | haha
well yeah most new networks are gpon afaik which kind of limits 24 houses or such to 2.4 gigabit they use time division multiplexing i think and encrypt the data so you get so many slices out of it dynamic reallocation of those slices, means that it should be possible to do 2 gigabit for one customer but if everyone goes hard of course it'd have to limit it. | [20:47] |
| m0unds | as long as my isp's network is engineered and managed such that i can use my full pipe and enjoy consistent latency all day, i don't care | [20:49] |
| mercutio | well things shouldn't really be designed so that you can use your full pipe necessarily | [20:49] |
| m0unds | m0unds shrugs | [20:49] |
| mercutio | just so that you get a decent chunk of the available bandwidth
and someone else running 100x as many connections as you should get half the bandwidth | [20:49] |
| m0unds | which factors into network management
yes | [20:50] |
| mercutio | and you get the other half
rather than them get 99% of the bandwidth it's actually pretty common that running more connectoins gives people more bandwidth and intelligent queueing etc is kind of necessary to improve that but you kind of want intelligent queueing everywhere :) and the only place it really happens is near end users generally and network neutrality may harm intelligent queueing on interconnections etc. | [20:50] |
| kellytk | For anyone familiar with Ping plugin of collectd, what values have you observed for `ping_droprate`? I've observed only 0 and 1 but I'd rather not rely on that, and unfortunately the documentation doesn't cover the value | [21:01] |
| RandalSchwartz | Ping? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0448421658/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=0448421658&linkCode=as2&tag=stonehengeconsul&linkId=ANEQ2LFY5RLU5ZFB | [21:04] |
| BryceBot | Amazon: "The Story about Ping" | [21:04] |
| brycec | RandalSchwartz: ++ | [21:04] |
| RandalSchwartz | I had that in a blog somewhere, and I had three fans *send me* a copy of that book!
Gotta love the fans. | [21:04] |
| brycec | heh
"Your rabid enthusiasm is appreciated, but slightly misdirected. Consider donating the book to your local library." | [21:07] |
| RandalSchwartz | and yes, it's good to be famous. never gonna give that up. :)
One of them looked like a fairly early edition. | [21:07] |
