Am I misreading the big jump in time between 11 and 12 as transatlantic
traffic? LND2 does sort of evoke "London" the same way that DCA evokes
"Washington DC" (Tyson's Corners??)

No, that is the transatlantic jump from London to DC.  Tyson's Corners is
further down, the naming convention is [port].[routertype].TCO#.Alter.Net

TCO=Tyson's Corners, Va.

I will say this, I agree with your assessment about bricksmiths potentially
being behind a potentially bad connection and I will raise the point with
the Powers That Be. :-)

Ooof, well, out of sheer curiousity, I did the following 6 traceroutes from the
Mae-WEST Looking Glass.  I correctly figured it would give a better peek at
cais.net's network.  Call me Sherlock Holmes.

As you can see, the potholes in cais.net's network abound.

Since we're getting it free, though, moving may not
be feasible. (and we're grateful, believe me).

Ooooof.  Well, I didn't say it was a bad connection for free.  For free, it's a
durn good connection.

I will say one more thing, and i think this is more important actually, than
diagnosing why bricksmiths is slow, I think we need to seek a different site
as the jump target for testing jump.cgi.

Preferably several, and with concurrent traceroutes to the site from both the
host requesting jump.cgi from Lugnet (ie, the desktop machine someone is
browsing from) *and* the Lugnet server (which, clearly, would require Todd's
