jimaek··on Cloud Firewalls
Once they double the RAM on all plans like Linode and Vultr did, I will move all of my servers back to DigitalOcean.

I love these features but double the RAM for the same price still outweighs them.

CloudFlare doesn't allow this kind of use of their service. Once you start pushing enough bandwidth they will ask you to go away. And since you offer free unlimited CDN bandwidth, when that happens and you move to a different CDN provider your bill could increase 50 times over a day.
jimaek··on GitHub Pages – Usage Limits
Use CloudFlare to proxy-cache your Github pages and it should be fine as long as you set correct caching rules.
jimaek··on Ask HN: Location-independent entrepreneurs, where do you live and why?
Krakow, Poland. Because Poland is one of the very few EU countries with low enough business requirements to get a residence.
jimaek··on AWS increased error rates / intermittent outages
Am I the only one having daily issues with SQS? I have 150+ servers writing to a queue and they timeout at random a few times per day.

jimaek··on Polyfills as a Service
The problem is their origin not the CDN itself. The author is not responding and wont fix the server
jimaek··on Ask HN: How did you migrate to the country you are living in now?
Ukraine(Donetsk) -> Poland

I opened a company and send all my invoices from the company's name. I lose money on all the taxes but its worth it. As long as I make enough money I can stay in the country and in the future apply for permanent residence and citizenship.

jimaek··on Worldwide DNS Performance
Its realistic but not consistent and reliable. Like I said I want to test their raw performance without any variables in between. All providers get tested directly from the exact same locations and times. Thats the data I wanted to get. It makes it easy and fair to compare.
jimaek··on Worldwide DNS Performance
I simply cant know what DCs are used by the providers that I monitor. So I have no idea where we share datacenters. What happens if they change DCs? I would need to constantly monitor their infrastructure. Filtering out would be too hard and pretty useless.

By simply adding more locations I fix the problem, add more data and simplify the whole process.

jimaek··on Worldwide DNS Performance
I guess I will need to fix that. thanks for the feedback
jimaek··on Worldwide DNS Performance
I use only 2 servers hosted with OVH. I see the problem here but there is no way to avoid it. Monitoring 37 providers will result in multiple "same DC" problems. I plan to solve this problem by keep adding new locations with different datacenters. The more locations I have the less impact this kind of issues will have.
jimaek··on Worldwide DNS Performance
I can say that it was nothing related to dnsperf. The perf change was on Dyn's side
jimaek··on Worldwide DNS Performance
Thank you, I will look into them.
jimaek··on Worldwide DNS Performance
Hey everybody, im the creator of dnsperf. I just wanted to clear some things up.

1. The point of the service is to have an objective way to compare different DNS services. dnsperf is supposed only to help you in your search for the best DNS service and not crown the absolute winner.

2. I plan to add as many locations as possible to get more reliable data. More locations will also solve the problem of "DNS at the same datacenter as my test nodes"

3. Some people are confused about the node locations. Here is the map http://www.dnsperf.com/network

4. Its not open source but some time in the future it will be.

5. The tests I am running are supposed to exclude variables such as local/ISP caching, DNS proxies, resolvers, SRTT and so on. I wanted to test the nameservers directly and get the raw performance data of the provider himself. I believe thats the best way to do fair comparison.

Thank you for your comments and love. I'm glad people liked the service :)

Feel free to email me with your feedback or questions.

jimaek··on Open Source Software CDN
OSSCDN is using jsDelivr as origin and jsDelivr API for the website
jimaek··on JsDelivr – The advanced open source public CDN
This is correct. cdnperf uses multiple locations provided by pingomd and also makes sure all CDNs are tested from the exact same locations. If you have any suggestions you can submit an issue over here https://github.com/bebraw/cdnperf
jimaek··on JsDelivr – The advanced open source public CDN
You can use this domain if you prefer http://www.jsdeliver.com/ :)
jimaek··on JsDelivr – The advanced open source public CDN
Akamai does not offer a public CDN. So they are not a competitor. Apples and oranges
jimaek··on JsDelivr – The advanced open source public CDN
I would love to have Google join jsDelivr but its hard getting in contact.

I guess Google is the one who knocks :p
