As I suspected, using the Maidenhead server got a better result than the Dublin server even though it is further away.

Haha Jesus. That's roughly how fast modems were in 1992. I suppose you're lucky to a connection at all though. These pages must take forever to load. Use lo-fi mode if you're not already.
