Nice, I will have to run it when I get home, but you clearly out class me now in the download department what is your plan?

According to some users in the US ISPs are already adding the domain to their "do not throttle" list

So... grain of salt I guess.

Since it runs off of Netflix servers I wonder if they don't anticipate that.

Would be funny if they put in a dual test to both domains and then reported the throttling.

Hmm I get really low results from it at home vs speed test.net and well large downloads like my Steam updates and StarCitizen updates that clock in at near full 100Mbits.
