We haven't had time to diagnose with them, but we ended up having to shut down our BGP sessions with HE last night due to horrible slow speed issues out of TOROONNX.

There's something going on, just don't know what it is yet.

I am unsure what’s the cause of it but we’ve seen it on the Tokyo - US
routes as well as the London - US routes. It reminds me of the Cogent
expansion which was carried out by unsustainable oversubscription which
eventually resulted in unusable service for a number of years. Having seen
some of the rates that HE has been selling for I can’t help but wonder if
they made the same mistake ...
