SmugMug site very slow

albumflip

I've noticed the past week that my smugmug site has been "slower" to load than in the past. I ran some speedtests below to test it out. My site is http://albumflip.smugmug.com. I live in Georgia. I have Comcast. Any ideas?

Speedtest to smugmug:


Speedtest to Atlanta (One Ring Networks):


Speedtest to Los Angeles, CA:

one more test to smugmug for good measure:

ok since none of my speedtest.net images are showing the results here is an export of my recent results. No one else is having issues with their site running slow? As you can see below, the speeds to San Jose (SmugMug) are horrible.

Yah, I'm seeing _very_ slow performance this evening as well. The below test is via Comcast (in the Minneapolis area):



I've also been trying to import a bunch of images from my smugmug site into animoto.com, and that's not working either, so I'm certain this problem isn't just a comcast issue.

...here's an mtr/traceroute report in case it helps. As you can see, I'm getting packet loss at the final endpoint of the trace.

Here is another mtr report (from my place of work):

...via Time Warner Telecom:

This route came in Limelight, and it looks much better than the traceroute from home, which was routed into smugmug's datacenter via Global Crossing.

can any of the smugmug techs address this issue?
