Hi all,

Am doing a bit of research into something at the moment and I'd like to collect some data regarding response times / routes to this server compared to the main web site one. The servers are a few thousand miles apart, so I'm expecting very varied results.

To that end, could you post your ping (and ideally traceroutes) to the following two sites: forum.thegamecreators.com and root.thegamecreators.com

Most importantly of all I need to know which ISP you are using and WHERE YOU LIVE (just the State/Region + Country will do) and the exact time of the day you ran the ping/trace.

Incase you don't know how to ping/trace, just open up a command prompt in Windows and type in "ping sitename" and "tracert sitename" and copy and paste the results here. Sometimes ISPs/firewalls block these sort of requests in which case you're no use to me at all

Cheers,

Rich

Looks to me that the forum is faster (I can't read). I'll run it from my house later (I know the ISP details there). Glad to help.

I would expect all decent UK (indeed European) ISPs to find the forum responds faster. It will be the results from people in the US that will be most interesting re: routes.

sorry, but how exactly do you log that?

Afaik you can't copy text from a dos window in xp, so I could only assume your saving the output text somewhere...

Run the command in a DOS window (stretch it vertically), then highlight all of the text, then hit the ENTER key. This copies it to the clipboard.

Jerico - as Ian said, or just redirect the output to a text file:

ping forum.thegamecreators.com > results.txt

(and sit and wait, it doesn't echo back what it does when you do this)

Last time I pinged your server (once) was when you supposedly had some serious downtime problems to see whether your website was alive or if it was my ISP who had problems and then you banned my IP and publicly posted it on the forum (as your privacy policy does not mention anything about).

People started probing ports on my server (home IP) after you did that so so much for being a "happy" TGC customer.

After e-mailing you, you lifted the ban of my home IP but never replied. An apology would have been the least.

While I can't give you the trace routes (don't know how) I can give you my ping times...



I live in North East Pennsylvania, my ISP is PTD.net (Penn Tele Data), and if my plan was correct it's on a 2MB line (or something or other).

Cheers,
Preston

Are you sure? Just to punctuate:

Right click on black.
Click Select All.
Press Enter.

An example of this exact thing:


[center]int N30F15H,a=1; do { N30F15H++; } while (a==1);

Right-clicking doesn't do anything. Also, there is no Windows info in the black area.

Edit: Um... you have to run cmd first.

Traceroute...



TBH I'm really not sure what the second to last hop timing out means precisely for the last traceroute, I ran it three times and it was always the same though .

That's an acronim for something but it isn't the browser.
(The trace won't finish)

ah that makes more sense but that is incorrect English:

ie never finishes - can be interpreted as Internet Explorer never finished (fine English)
ie it never finished - cannot be interpreted as IE it never finished (bad English)

I accept that everyone's English (eg me) isn't and never will be perfect but making it make sense is essesial

Ilya - it will finish eventually. First it will trace on the IPs, then it will try and fill in the host names for each IP. It can take a while (especially if you get a lot of blocking routers on the way that time-out). But don't worry about it too much, I've got plenty of results from everyone else here.

Quote: "What information will this data give you Rich?"


It is proving quite conclusive so far - for a lot of non-European users you are getting significantly faster response times from root than from the forum server. I was expecting this anyway, afterall your requests have a lot further to travel. What was most interesting is the trace route results, some of the routing is quite whakked out and causing the forum to be a lot slower than it ought to be.

The reason for asking for this data is as follows: the link from the root server itself directly to the forum server is extremely fast and very well routed, the connection completing in less than 7 hops. This obviously being because the two servers are sat on extremely fast well homed networks far beyond any cable/dial-up service.

So I am currently playing with the idea that, for what appears to be half the users who posted their results, it would be faster for you to request your forum pages via our US server, which in turn would talk directly to the forum server and relay that information back to you. With a little caching intelligence on the forums end (i.e. if the data it would send back was identical to the last request, it can just say so) I believe this could speed things up quite considerably.

Cheers,

Rich
