Well, CRL really doesn't have anything they need to "fix", but they have done a number of things to work around the congestion problem that MCI is having at the PB-NAP. They've tried to split the traffic between MAE-west and PB-NAP for one. I also found out last night that another major provider is now backhauling all of their MCI traffic to MAE-east in an attempt to steer clear of the problem. The combination of providers now avoiding MCI at PB-NAP, and CRL's attempts to better distribute the traffic are two of the main reasons why we set a new record. ...of course the FreeBSD 2.1.7 release helped out a bunch, too. :-) -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project
