BTW, public IXen in Europe don't tend to be congested. Whether this is the result of better management, or of lower traffic volumes

Possibly, they also tend to be member owned so people have a stake in making them work whereas a commercial IX may have other priorities We have virtually zero visibility into what's going on inside commercial IX compared to the data we see in member organisations - it's hard to hide stuff from the members Doesn't mean commercial is bad though brandon
