Clara's retention is poor these days, worse than a lot of ISPs.

Newshosting's retention is around 26 days on all groups, and it consistently maxes out my 2Mbps DSL. Header downloads come in at over 200kB/s, 2 threads maxes me.

Certainly not slow at all even though it's in the USA, still a lot of bandwidth trans-Atlantic.
