OK, cynical paranoid sysadmin's hat on. 

I'm on voda ADSL here, and experience random, unexplained delays to
various sites. My gut feeling is that it's the GCSB's monitoring
software getting in the way. It was a great service 6 months ago, and
now it's not.

When you're sat on the target server, waiting for a request to come in
and it's unexpectedly delayed for up to 30 seconds, I certainly look
towards the service provider's kit.

Even the possibility of this makes me nervous about upgrading to a new
plan that locks you in for 2 years - no matter how much it's going to
save me - that's for sure!
