Well thank you for your kind words on the fact that I'm offering my
bandwidth and servers for free to anyone who wants to use them.

The servers are in fact a cluster of 5 machines and handle about 50
million queries a day. I'm wondering how you have 'benchmarked' my
servers? I think that you have measured nothing more than the latency, and
I highly recommend 'ping' or 'traceroute' for that.

Try 'ping www.altavista.com' for example.
