After seeing possible evidence of Verizon slowing down AWS traffic we have put up a simple page that utilizes our company technology to test the speed to different servers hosted by different cloud technologies. Please test as much as you like. All your speed test results are saved and we will publish the results on the same page after some statistically relevant sample is gathered.

FYI, Linode will throttle your instances to 50Mbps, so if this gets too popular, people may erroneously think that they're being throttled because the server won't send them data as fast as I could.

actually, it's 250mbps now.

May well be related to the perennial verizon / cogent peering flap- we got bit by this over the summer:

I'm (currently lol) a Verizon FiOS user from Orchard Park, NY (just South of Buffalo) and I thought you might like to see my results so far:

I plan on running it a few more times tonight as well as throughout the next week or so until they admit this isn't just a "coincidence" :-)

Reply on here if you'd like me to contact you with all my data in the future. Thanks!

Your interface seems to fail with my minimum font setting; I need to copy out the speed results to be able to read them, which isn't that fun.
