Hey Tim, Do you have any traceroutes during the time of the problem? We didn't see any internal latency or packet loss problems for SliceHost or Rackspace in DFW.

Slicehost DFW1 seems to have recovered as of 11:15 AM EST on 2010-03-06. No word as to root cause, looked like it was in their network.

Looks like slicehost's DFW1 facility is having high packet loss and extremely slow pings as of 11:00 AM EST on 2010-03-06.

We're seeing 60% packet loss and 500ms+ ping times when they aren't dropped.
