Judging from the last 5 posts, no one has yet...
if his test server is inhouse as i think he said - i agree, should be an
interesting response

So then do you get full line speed results from the test?

Interesting though, from watching tcpdump while doing a speedtest, I’m
seeing it hit BOTH of our local on-net Netflix appliances (over IPv6).

Netflix uses a lot of EC2 stuff, so you’re not necessarily hitting their
“cache” when you pull up their website.

Very inaccurate too.
I get 160Mbps results on a 10Gbps connection.
This is with a path to Netflix that pretty much sits in LA.
So I am assuming I hit their CDN in LA all the time.
Not sure where their speed test web app is located.

This could be useful from a residential last mile customer point of
view, to expose ISPs which have good peering/low congestion tospeedtest.net but
might have less than optimal routing to Netflix. Or an ISP that is flat topping
the traffic charts on an N x 10GbE link to netflix somewhere in the
intermediate path.
Some people will see radically different results from speetest vs this
new Netflix test during peak evening hours.

Just came across this https://fast.com. Utility from netflix.
Torching it looks like it opens 3 HTTPS connections to 3 different IP Addresses
to run the test. Only reports download speed, no Latency or Upload.
