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

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
assistance).  You need the traces to be sure it isn't network slowdown from
either location causing a problem.

why do you need traces from lugnet to wherever?  the jump.cgi doesn't get
the data for you, it just redirects you to your desination...  so the
connection speed between lugnet and your target is immaterial.

btw, if you want to try another host, you're welcome to use peeron.com -
it's on a fast pipe that should be fairly unclogged.
