Latency in Sending and Receiving Files From Amazon EC2 - Justification
- by Adroidist
I am facing a huge delay while uploading and downloading files from my Windows Amazon EC2 server to my android device.
It takes around 50 seconds to upload then download 500 Kbytes image.
My location is in asia and the server is is US-East.
I pinged the server from my android and obtained values around 500 ms for RTT.
Is this normal? How is this explained?
I tried this website: http://cloudharmony.com/speedtest/run and obtained that downloading 270 Kbytes file takes around 20 seconds. How is this delay justified?
