Well right now, www.rulesemporium.com came up in a few seconds
directly, and took over a minute via the Coral Cache.
So I would answer "because it doesn't help, and slows things down
in fact".
The initial retrieval of the cached pages *does* require a regular
connection to the primary website, so the coral network would be just
as impacted by a DDoS as regular users are. However, once it has its
copy response should be quite fast. I just tried it and it took just a
few seconds, whereas I haven't been able to get directly to the
primary website at all for a week or more.
Hi John,
Prolexic says...
If you could ask any users with connectivity issues to submit a 'host
www.rulesemporium.com' and 'tcptraceroute www.rulesemporium.com' along"
with a complaint of connectivity problems, that would be very helpful.
So, if you want to send that to me, I can get the info to them so they
can get to the bottom of it.
