​Hi all,


We (College of DuPage) too are experiencing very slow nomads downloads.  Here 
is our traceroute:

Carissa,

As you know, we've been reporting slow-to-very-slow ftp downloads from NCEP to 
NOAA/ESRL/GSD in Boulder for some time, including occasional rates as low as 
Patrick's .4 MB/s. At the moment, my curl download of a GFS 0.25 deg file to 
/dev/null is running about 2-4 MB/s (~1-2 minutes to download). That's a 
fraction of what we might expect over the NOAA NWAVE connection. And, given 
that our route is independent of Internet2 and external ISP paths traversed by 
UCAR and others, this would seem to suggest an issue within the NCEP FTP/HTTP 
dissemination environment...

Patrick,

So from the looks of your screen grab that is 7 minutes to download the 0.25 
GFS from our FTP server. Do you have ideas of how slow that is compared to 
normal from Colorado? I will be passing this information on to our IT folks.

All,
Something bigger than just CONDUIT users occurred on the 19th. We had numerous 
users of other servers complain of similar drops in transfer rates. A few of 
them were also able to move downloads to a new location where speeds were 
normal. We believe that this issue was outside of NCEP due to that reasoning. 
Having said that though, is anyone still seeing abnormal rates?


Hi Carissa ☺

From our Amazon location in VA, everything is fine as it was on Friday… From 
our colo facility, packet loss is still shown via 140.90.111.36, which is the 
hop from gigapop to ncep.. here is an MTR showing the packet loss:

http://drmalachi.org/files/ncep/he-ncep.2016.02.22.jpg

Notice that since our colo is directly on the Hurricane Electric backbone, 
there are only a few hops to get to the ncep server, and pings only jump once 
they reach gigapop.

Here is a screen cap of current download speeds for 0.25deg gfs from the ncep 
server to our colo:

http://drmalachi.org/files/ncep/he-ncep.wget.2016.02.22.jpg

In order to ensure proper delivery, we have setup a push / pull from our amazon 
box to the colo, but most people probably won’t have that flexibility.. The 
issue appears to potentially be related to packetfiltering and / or redirection 
/ funneling via certain routes, but that’s just a guess ☺

Happy Monday ☺

Cheers,

--patrick
