Nah, just my crappy Chrome getting bogged down with about 300 tabs open.

Ah, that's better.

JANET can be very useful for uploading files to cloud storage - just sayin'....
I had been tempted to use it to upload my 60TB array to one of those unlimited cloud storage things but the machine weighs nearly 40KG and I couldn't be bothered lugging that into the office and back. And also, my 20Mbps unlimited, unshaped, unthrottled upload I have at home is good enough most of the time. And when that's not enough I also have 50Mbps upload on 4G with absurd usage allowances too.

Incidentally, I must say Softlayer (London and Amsterdam) speedtest servers are pretty decent right now, easily managing 2Gbps, Vodafone (London) and TNP (Manchester) are very good too.

The once-great Namesco and Structured communications are both pretty poor right now though Namesco by far the worst. Structured is fine for <=300Mbps connections but Namesco I'd stay away from unconditionally.
