How far away is that server?
Ever wondered how far away a server is? You can get a clue from the ping time taken as internet traffic is fast but not instantaneous. No doubt someone can up with some scientific figures and speed here ... but seated in England, I've found today:
375ms to a server in Australia
170ms to a server on the West Coast of the USA
26ms to a server that I think is in Franfurt
less than 1ms to a server on my own LAN. (written 2005-09-10, updated 2006-06-05)
