In most time, the speed I access my site hosted in HG is good. However, sometimes the speed is much slower.

I find that when the speed is fast, I ping my site , the result time is a few more than 200ms, it is mainly spent on the hop cross pacific occean. other hops take very little time.

However, when the speed is slow, I find the ping time will be about 400ms. I notice the extra 200ms is spent on the hop of ip:12.87.41.150, by the names, I guess this node is a key interface bewteen the att.net and network of ThePlanet.

the list of traced route as below. please read the line 16 and line 17.
