Uh huh.  And all colocated machines have 2x GigE connections with
802.3ad to take advantage of the 2x OC12?  Someone with a T3 to
their upstream has more bandwidth than a 10 Mbps colo.

Furthermore, I'm curious if it's 2x OC12 worth of IP.  Many shady
operations crow about OC12... when that's really just the local
loop, and IP is 2x DS3 {or similar}.

What matters it total response time from when a request is
generated until it's completely serviced.  Period.  Full stop.

I'll take an uncongested frac-DS3 over a congested OC12 any day.
