Not to sure if anyone can give us a definate answer on something like this ( am guessing though i stand to be corrected ) , but a good benchmark which doesnt really tell you how much bandwidth they actually "waste" so to speak but you can atleast know where they rank say failure wise. http://uptime.netcraft.com/perf/reports/Hosters maybe this will change net testers , "test" prefferences , but i believe these stats entail more than what we are seeing on the page, exchange points. connection types e.t.c. ma 2 shillings :) > > Mark. > _______________________________________________ > LUG mailing list > [email protected] > http://kym.net/mailman/listinfo/lug > %LUG is generously hosted by INFOCOM http://www.infocom.co.ug/ Regards David Ziggy Lubowa _______________________________________________ LUG mailing list [email protected] http://kym.net/mailman/listinfo/lug %LUG is generously hosted by INFOCOM http://www.infocom.co.ug/
