iBurst connection to Google broken?

GMail is slow.
Google's homepage takes a while to load.
Google+ just completely times out.
Even here, the Google APIs don't want to load.

Out of interest:

There are two international transits
- telia (configured to transit via WACs on the west coast)
- cogent (configured to trasnit via EASSy on the east coast)

If you do a tracert to an international site you can see the route by looking at what transit is being used.

If there is a failure on a route then the transit swops to the alternative path. Ususally takes about 4 minutes.
 
can some one explain why the slow speeds of late? & if any one else in the area experiencing the same problem.
