Hello,

I am the author. The difference is that Akamai is working on optimizing bandwidth to their customer from a pipes size perspective, not a latency perspective. In other words, they want the widest highway possible, maybe not the fastest.

Interesting, thanks for that.

You guys should really consider making this a platform that anyone could use!
