Looked into this. Twofold there, 1 the subnet is advertised in all 3 regions. 2, it seems Amazon is preferring our JHB peering session over CPT.. We're going to play around with the path lengths a tad to try steer CPT prefixes via the CPT peering session. Here's a traceroute to EC2 hosted in Ireland from speedtest.cpt:

Will update further and test to other CPT only prefixes.

Just wondering if you managed to solve it? I know it can get complex especially with small prefixes so if I should be checking to another IP let me know.
 
It doesn't cache them, but loads them via their CDN which is massive and covers nearly all exchanges in the world, which essentially means my 1000Mbps local download comes from their JHB CDN instead of my server in the US which would cap at 200Mbit less TCP overheads.

i have been using seedboxes for about 5 years now
this is really interesting if i can download via our local CDN`s as this, as you say maxes your line

Since the issue was with me I changed to 100/10 package from 20/20 from 200/20 from 200/200 from 50/50.

Now I want to go back to 200/20 but shop.vuma won't let me. I guess there is a limit to how many times you can change.

Will get this sorted for you asap!
 
Last week ping to Hong Kong was 230 if my eyes weren't deceiving me, now it's 330.
