 > Interesting, was this changed recently?  I researched after noticing
 very large swings in moria1 votes the last several weeks.  One possible
 problem with Asia is core network link saturation during busy times.
 Saturation on a path can result in a throughput collapse for TCP
 connections.

 Oops.  Mentally crossed the system name with Seoul, but I see it's MIT.
 Is it possible MIT peering is under pressure lately?  Some vote swings are
 close to 10x.
