The difference is the throughput.
Imagine like having 512k ADSL or 2MB ADSL.

Subject: Network speed

I have been with a particular CF hosting company for a number of years.  
Recently I sent them two machines for co-location. The first, which I sent
months ago, is connected to the Internet at 100Mbps. The second, which I
sent  days ago, is connected at 10Mbps. They told me there was a policy
change because they didn't want people going to far over their bandwidth
limit for the month.  
They also told me that there should be no visible difference for my CF
applications doing work on the Internet. 
 
1) Maybe I don't understand this but I don't see the relationship between
the network connection speed and the total bandwidth usage in a month, only
that  if you have a higher network speed, you have the potential of using
the bandwidth at a greater rate. Is that right?
 
2) Developers have told me that the CF applications on the new server seem
to do work on the Internet more slowly. Could this be the case or are we
just imagining this? Is there anyway to test this difference in speed? I did
some tests using the CNET bandwidth measurement, but besides that I'm not
sure how to  test it to show them that there is a difference in  speed.
