[not anandtech.com, it's my route] forums2.anandtech.com is SLOW, forums1.anandtech.com is FAST

Something is wrong with forums2.anandtech.com. It takes a long time for some pages to load if they even finish loading. forums1.anandtech.com is much faster...

What's wrong?

Doesn't look too bad... Maybe a router was just on the blink though...

Still a bit chunky... Oh well, least it isn't anandtech.com 🙂... I'm sure it'll clear up by tomorrow (oh, and I know this one is for forums2.anandtech.com but it was getting the same low total milleseconds as above until just a sec ago).
 
Mucho faster.

That is a nice traceroute you got going there... Nice linear progression upwards, my is just spikey... Takes a while to get out of alter.net and stargate.net.

Thanks for posting your tracert/trace routes.
