large RTT between usbos01 and Comcast
[us] Shadow Hawkins on Friday, 08 May 2015 14:42:21
In the last couple of days, the RTT between the usbos01 POP and the Comcast network is very large, about 400 ms. Here are traceroutes from both directions suggesting the the issue is with the intermediate gateway tata-px.whkn01.occaid.net. traceroute6 to usbos01.sixxs.net (2001:4830:e1:b::2) from 2601:6:8300:2af:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx, 64 hops max, 12 byte packets 1 2601:6:8300:2af:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx 1.308 ms 1.076 ms 1.221 ms 2 2001:558:4023:108::1 9.608 ms * 62.650 ms 3 te-0-0-0-11-sur03.westroxbury.ma.boston.comcast.net 11.884 ms 12.253 ms 15.884 ms 4 be-20-ar01.needham.ma.boston.comcast.net 7.556 ms 20.189 ms 13.099 ms 5 be-7015-cr01.newyork.ny.ibone.comcast.net 21.166 ms 19.358 ms 21.027 ms 6 he-0-11-0-1-pe03.111eighthave.ny.ibone.comcast.net 17.081 ms 17.518 ms 19.813 ms 7 if-xe-1-2-2.0.tcore1.n75-new-york.ipv6.as6453.net 17.209 ms if-xe-0-0-4.0.tcore1.n75-new-york.ipv6.as6453.net 16.994 ms 18.779 ms 8 if-ae9.2.tcore1.nto-new-york.ipv6.as6453.net 17.122 ms 17.631 ms 17.218 ms 9 if-ae5.5.tcore1.nyy-new-york.ipv6.as6453.net 16.948 ms 19.585 ms 18.405 ms 10 if-0-1.dia1.nyy-new-york.ipv6.as6453.net 22.386 ms 19.797 ms 19.810 ms 11 tata-px.whkn01.occaid.net 344.207 ms 336.551 ms 427.739 ms 12 nyk01-ip-rt-gi0-0-1.occaid.net 614.378 ms 414.058 ms 342.162 ms 13 bsn01-ip-rt-gi0-1-232.occaid.net 346.698 ms 443.613 ms 341.039 ms 14 bos01-ip-rt-gi0-4.occaid.net 343.885 ms 498.533 ms 337.641 ms 15 sixxs-ic-1139-bos.customer.occaid.net 336.355 ms 337.398 ms 339.818 ms traceroute6 to cdns01.comcast.net (2001:558:feed::1) from 2001:4830:1100:1ed::2, 64 hops max, 12 byte packets 1 gw-494.bos-01.us.sixxs.net 1.687 ms 1.541 ms 1.468 ms 2 sixxs-ic-1139-bos.customer.occaid.net 1.610 ms 1.577 ms 1.590 ms 3 dcr01-ve402.bstn01.occaid.net 1.603 ms 1.599 ms 1.785 ms 4 bsn01-ip-rt-gi0-1-219.occaid.net 2.202 ms 2.203 ms 2.199 ms 5 nyk01-ip-rt-gi0-0-3.occaid.net 7.164 ms 6.996 ms 7.143 ms 6 ewr01-ip-rt-gi0-0-1.occaid.net 7.892 ms 8.081 ms 7.806 ms 7 tata-px.whkn01.occaid.net 356.636 ms 352.792 ms 355.914 ms 8 if-5-0-4.mcore4.nyy-new-york.ipv6.as6453.net 359.484 ms 360.578 ms 353.509 ms 9 if-ae5.5.tcore1.nto-new-york.ipv6.as6453.net 354.167 ms 351.424 ms 351.533 ms 10 if-ae9.2.tcore1.n75-new-york.ipv6.as6453.net 356.562 ms 359.709 ms 360.283 ms 11 2001:5a0:3900::12 361.293 ms 352.651 ms 2001:5a0:3900::16 348.559 ms 12 * he-5-6-0-0-cr01.newyork.ny.ibone.comcast.net 355.334 ms he-5-5-0-0-cr01.newyork.ny.ibone.comcast.net 359.514 ms 13 te-1-1-ar01.pimaco.az.pima.comcast.net 361.784 ms 359.904 ms 358.914 ms 14 xe-1-0-1-0-ur14-d.manassascc.va.bad.comcast.net 364.595 ms xe-1-0-0-0-ur14-d.manassascc.va.bad.comcast.net 369.074 ms 368.170 ms 15 te-3-2-ur04-d.manassascc.va.bad.comcast.net 362.362 ms 356.851 ms 435.314 ms 16 cdns01.comcast.net 356.173 ms 354.203 ms 356.608 ms

large RTT between usbos01 and Comcast

Welcome to Net Neutrality.... that circuit has to be heavily overloaded to cause a 300ms++ delay (which would a round-the-world-route otherwise). Unfortunately there is little one can do about these kind of connections as it happens in networks we do not have influence over.

If I understand correctly, the problem circuit tata-px.whkn01.occaid.net is an uplink connection to occaid.net which hosts usbos01 (as well as other POPs). The problem is at occaid.org's side and not at Comcast's side, so I don't think it is intentional overloading as you have suggested. Please forward the issue to occaid.org, they may have some control over their uplinks. Thanks!

That hop where the latency increase is happening is a transit interface. Just congested.

It look like the issue is now resolved.
