Hi,

OK, thank you for your traceroutes !

As far as I know, we didn't have any major issue between Dec 12th and Dec
21st on Hivane's node.
We have changed the hardware on Dec 6th, since we had increasing
queries/s,and now everything seems fine (NSD helps a lot on that !).

blackhole-1 & 2 are on the same physical server, on our side, so my guess
is that there may have been some loss on the path at the time you
experienced slowness/non-response. It's a pretty long path between
Winnipeg
& Paris. Strange that MTS does not get any better route/aspath than over
Linx for AS112.

Best regards,

Clément Cavadore
