Fastly-specific speed test?

Network Services

Hi all,
I also sent this to noc@, guess it’s worth posting here too.

I’m trying to gather information to send to my ISP - I think Fastly is slower than other CDNs on Launtel.

Do you have a speed test or a large file hosted that I can curl on a schedule?

I have noticed that some hosts go through NSW IX (e.g. fastly-download.epicgames.com) versus Equinix (deb.debian.org), at least from what I can see looking at traceroutes. I’m not sure if that’s enough to change speeds dramatically.

Hey @voltagex can you send back the hashed block from this URL? It may have some of the information you’re looking for https://www.fastly-debug.com/

Hi, I wasn’t sure how much identifying info was in that block so I didn’t post it here.

Chris from your NOC replied to my email with a a few questions and I’ve replied there, using https://v6.fastly-debug.com
