Akamai and it’s customers do not have all content at all locations, nor is their routing always consistent, however you 
may be able to reach out to them to level this.

We hit over 40G on one of our PNIs.

Currently, however, I'm trying to figure out why we're still seeing a significant amount of traffic over transit when 
we have PNIs at the same locations ...

I've reached out to Akamai, but I haven't heard anything back yet. I'm sure they're busy ...

Wow, yeah, my Akamai servers are again, hitting all time highs… one cache hit up to ~30 gig… been ramping up and 
down since this morning around 9 or 10 a.m. central time.
Here’s a strange thing though, around 14:45 – 15:30, I got massive outbound on my internet connection (~20 gbps), 
and I never send that much out to the internet
