Google's cloud bursts yet again

Gmail brown-outs and blackouts

I've been suffering from Gmail brown-outs & slow-downs for several months. I've tried to match the problem times to peak net load (iplayer etc.) but whilst there is some correlation it is clear that is not the only problem here.

It's gotten that bad lately I'm seriously thinking of moving off gmail, which I would count as a problem as I generally do like the service.

Regards, Mike
