Question regarding aptitude package repository speed
What is the typical/expected download speed from
`http://packages.ntop.org/apt/`?

It seems to be averaging around 10 kB/s as of late, which makes the
upgrade times for nBox pretty crazy. It also seems to just timeout
fairly often, stopping the upgrades altogether.

This is across multiple systems, and I haven't seen this issue happen
with packages from other mirrors. I'm just trying to better understand
the expectation for the ntop suite of software.

Thank you,

Hi Chris
I have made some checks and the Internet speed from various locations I
have access to, it is ~100 Mbit that is the nominal speed of the
Internet connection we have.

So I think the problem is due to inefficient routing. Can you please do
a traceroute towards packages.ntop.org and a new download, then report.

Thank you Luca

Hi Luca,

See the MTR output below. Latency jumps pretty dramatically between hops
#10 & #11, which both appear to be DTAG IPs. Hop #9 is Zayo at LAX, so
#10 to #11 is probably the cross-continental spike within DTAG's network.

I just grabbed a one of the .deb files directly with wget. The average
