    The knock against them has been that they oversell connections and poor peering arrangements.

    High latency is a result.

        Everybody oversells their connections to an extent. But they did it to the point of noticeable network slowdowns.

        They appear to have gotten lot better though.

                Many people would disagree. The host in your sig uses Cogent, no wonder you'd post something like this.

                  Cogent only - never.

                  Cogent in a BGP mix of several other upstreams - better.

                  No Cogent in my upstreams configuration - best.
