Cisco systems has posted a number of new bug reports on a variety of their products.. I've been trying to get someone to analyze the data from their site. May have a bearing on this report?

It's mellowed out now, but for about 15 - 20 minutes I had 2000 ms delays to Raleigh and Seattle, along with some servers disappearing completely.

Thanks for the link. I only posted the thread because it was really strange on my end. Delays increased from between 20 to 30x to some locations, and I lost the whole link for about 1 minute. The delays only lasted for about 10 minutes to most locations. Must have been isolated to my location.
