Could you guys do a bit of pinging for me as I'd need to determine what's the average network latency from your location to our servers. So please do a ping from your machine to airwaysim.com and post results here. Report your country, ISP, connection speed, packet loss and average ping.
Instructions for windows users: -> command prompt -> type ping airwaysim.com -> wait it to finish -> post here with the details like this:

Speedwise it is good, content loads quickly.
OK.. I am just checking all this as majority of users is from USA and it may be needed to set up a mirror there in case the site is slow. But it seems not to be.
(mirroring the site to two separate servers would be very tricky anyway, plus we have very good & affordable hosting deal at the moment .. which also works) ;)
I travel for work, so I access the site from all over the country. For me, the site has never been painfully slow. I've always been able to do what I need to do without a huge lag.

Nah, it's actually a heck of a lot speedier than most sites I frequent, including big-time major ones (Google, Amazon, CNN, etc). I mean, it's
still less than 2/10ths of a second. :) The important thing is that it's consistent (and it appears to be for all of us here), that there's no loss, and that we're not doing anything that requires extremely precise reflexes (i.e. playing an online shooter game or something)
