case trying to use one of the speedtest.net servers - we had a clear 10G path out through like 3 AS's in a row, the bottleneck was speedtest.net's server. :)
you'll have to forgive me for being the cynical type, but I gave up on Speedtest the day they reported 146Mbit/sec download over a link which was hard-wired to 100Mbit/sec full duplex, and later that day they reported 2Mbit from another nearby server to the same box. I figured a stddev of 2 orders of magnitude wasn't going to give me figures accurate enough for my requirements. But hey, this is the Internet: ymmv, ianal, lolwut, bbq. Nick
