I also am booted from their netboot kernel 64bit,1000MHz and tests on local kernel and with the netboot kernel (simply the 1000Mhz difference) dropped server load from ~0.8 to 0.05.

I would give it some more time since their paths to the US are great for me - I had this discussion in another thread with a rep from yellowfiber and showed traceroutes and even offered up a test download file from LA and OVH. for most there was no diff in speed from both servers, but some US people got even better speeds on the oVH download.
I take it you like OVH overall? I am trying to choose between ovh,webzilla and leaseweb for a euro host.
