Re: Google Speed Test

Cloudflare has https://speed.cloudflare.com and Apple has
http://test.edge.apple/debug/ too.

The Cloudflare speed test usually gives lesser results vs. Ookla while
Apple's test URL is only useful to test on which cluster an end-customer
ends up. I'll take notes about the "networkQuality" command!
