| Re: Cable winning the speed race
Is anyone aware of what type of caching is going on in your average cable plant? I understand the @Home setup involves a nice beefy cache to keep lots of content local to the cable co, and I'd guess RR does the same.
Can the DSLReports speed-o-meter be fooled by a cache?
I wasn't much of a cache believer until I saw a well-populated NetApp cache in action.
What would DSL'ers think about all their web access being run through a cache (assuming it performed well)?
