Quote:
A Virgin Media Spokesperson told ISPreview.co.uk:
“A very small number of Virgin Media customers (less than 1%) may have noticed a deviation in their expected connection performance when using some tools and websites
This is caused by a link failure resulting in the loss of around 0.98% of Virgin Media’s broadband capacity. This will affect these customers at peak times (after 6pm).
Virgin Media is working hard to restore the capacity as quickly as possible. We apologise to the small number of customers affected for any inconvenience.”

So apparently, everyone who has noticed the hump here and on other sites are in the less than 1%. Plus losing 0.98% of capacity is enough to cause at least a doubling of the minimum latency.
