The speed thing is definatly a problem (but not with GRAB). You may have well
been on a slow modem.

Do a traceroute to altruistic.lbl.gov, and show me what you get. My bet is
that there is a slow router in between you and me. LBL has an amazingly fast
connection to ESNet, so I don't think that it is at our end either.

cause is. How fast is it for just Mozilla.org?
