However the cost/benefit plays out... RD> I also prefer ethernet peering instead of ATM. Agreed. RD> Equinix looks like the best option in Chicago, but most RD> long-haul carriers are in 600 Federal and not 350 Cermak. For now, anyway. RD> As for Akamai, I've found very little of my traffic (<5%) is RD> Akamai. Interesting. If you don't mind me asking, what is your total traffic level, and how did you determine 5%?
